DSA-1811 cups, cupsys -- null ptr dereferenceID: oval:org.mitre.oval:def:8074 | Date: (C)2009-12-15 (M)2024-02-15 |
Class: PATCH | Family: unix |
Anibal Sacco discovered that cups, a general printing system for UNIX systems, suffers from null pointer dereference because of its handling of two consecutive IPP packets with certain tag attributes that are treated as IPP_TAG_UNSUPPORTED tags. This allows unauthenticated attackers to perform denial of service attacks by crashing the cups daemon.
