The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2025:03261-1 advisory.

    - CVE-2024-47175: no validation of IPP attributes in `ppdCreatePPDFromIPP2` when writing to a temporary     PPD file allows       for the injection of attacker-controlled data to the resulting PPD (bsc#1230932).
    - CVE-2025-58060: no password check when `AuthType` is set to anything but `Basic` and a request is made     with an       `Authorization: Basic` header (bsc#1249049).
    - CVE-2025-58364: unsafe deserialization and validation of printer attributes leads to NULL pointer     dereference       (bsc#1249128).

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2024:7623 advisory.

    The cups-filters package contains back ends, filters, and other software that was once part of the core     Common UNIX Printing System (CUPS) distribution but is now maintained independently.

    Security Fix(es):

    * cups-browsed: cups-browsed binds on UDP INADDR_ANY:631 trusting any packet from any source ()

    * cups-filters: libcupsfilters: `cfGetPrinterAttributes` API does not perform sanitization on returned IPP     attributes (CVE-2024-47076)

    * cups: libppd: remote command injection via attacker controlled data in PPD file ()

The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALINUX3-SA-2024:0225 advisory.

    Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2024-47076:
    CUPS is a standards-based, open-source printing system, and `libcupsfilters` contains the code of the     filters of the former `cups-filters` package as library functions to be used for the data format     conversion tasks needed in Printer Applications. The `cfGetPrinterAttributes5` function in     `libcupsfilters` does not sanitize IPP attributes returned from an IPP server. When these IPP attributes     are used, for instance, to generate a PPD file, this can lead to attacker controlled data to be provided     to the rest of the CUPS system.

    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.

    CVE-2024-47176:
    CUPS is a standards-based, open-source printing system, and `cups-browsed` contains network printing     functionality including, but not limited to, auto-discovering print services and shared printers. `cups-     browsed` binds to `INADDR_ANY:631`, causing it to trust any packet from any source, and can cause the     `Get-Printer-Attributes` IPP request to an attacker controlled URL. When combined with other     vulnerabilities, such as CVE-2024-47076, CVE-2024-47175, and CVE-2024-47177, an attacker can execute     arbitrary commands remotely on the target machine without authentication when a malicious printer is     printed to.

    CVE-2024-47850:
    CUPS cups-browsed before 2.5b1 will send an HTTP POST request to an arbitrary destination and port in     response to a single IPP UDP packet requesting a printer to be added, a different vulnerability than     CVE-2024-47176. (The request is meant to probe the new printer but can be used to create DDoS     amplification attacks.)
