The cupsd has been reported prone to a denial of service vulnerability.
|
|
|
|
Reportedly the cupsd does not adequately apply a time-out process for malicious HTTP requests and service is denied to subsequent cupsd requests.
|
|
|
|
This issue may be exploited by remote attackers to deny cupsd service to valid users.
