Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2025-58060

high Nessus Plugin ID 264743

Language:

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

- OpenPrinting CUPS is an open source printing system for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. In versions 2.4.12 and earlier, when the `AuthType` is set to anything but `Basic`, if the request contains an `Authorization: Basic ...` header, the password is not checked. This results in authentication bypass.
Any configuration that allows an `AuthType` that is not `Basic` is affected. Version 2.4.13 fixes the issue. (CVE-2025-58060)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
