CVE detail

CVE-2024-47175

CUPS is a standards-based, open-source printing system, and `libppd` can be used for legacy PPD file support. The `libppd` function `ppdCreatePPDFromIPP2` does not sanitize IPP attributes when creating the PPD buffer. When used in combination with other functions such as `cfGetPrinterAttributes5`, can result in user controlled input and ultimately code execution via Foomatic. This vulnerability can be part of an exploit chain leading to remote code execution (RCE), as described in CVE-2024-47176.

  • CUPS vulnerabilities could be abused for DDoS attacksHelp Net Security

    While the Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) vulnerabilities recently disclosed by researcher Simone “evilsocket” Margaritelli are not easily exploited for remote command execution on vulnerable systems, they could offer more opportunity to attackers who engage in DDoS attacks, Akamai threat researchers have discovered. Potential for RCE CUPS is an open-source printing system based on the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP). While present on many Linux, BSD and other systems, CUPS is not enabled by default on … More →
