NewStart CGSL MAIN 6.06 : system-config-printer Vulnerability (NS-SA-2025-0233)

high Nessus Plugin ID 266251

Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 6.06, has system-config-printer packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability:

 - The cupshelpers scripts in system-config-printer in Ubuntu 11.04 and 11.10, as used by the automatic printer driver download service, uses an insecure connection for queries to the OpenPrinting database, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack that modifies packages or repositories. (CVE-2011-4405)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the vulnerable CGSL system-config-printer packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.
