    Package        : cups-filters
    Version        : 1.21.6-5+deb10u1
    CVE ID         : CVE-2023-24805
    Debian Bug     : 1036224


    It was discovered that missing input sanitising in cups-filters, when
    using the Backend Error Handler (beh) backend to create an accessible
    network printer, may result in the execution of arbitrary commands.


    For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version
    1.21.6-5+deb10u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your cups-filters packages.

    For the detailed security status of cups-filters please refer to
    its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/cups-filters

    Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
