"The remote openSUSE 16 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
openSUSE-SU-2026:21850-1 advisory.
Changes in cups-filters:
- CVE-2026-64611: Fixed Infinite-loop CPU-exhaustion DoS in
cfIEEE1284NormalizeMakeModel on empty MDL field.
A user who controls an IEEE-1284 device ID consumed by
`cfIEEE1284GetMakeModel` can drive
`cfIEEE1284NormalizeMakeModel` into an infinite loop.
(bsc#1273145,GHSA-rcq7-rv5g-j3r4)
- CVE-2026-64612: Fixed Malformed PNG aborts CUPS image filter process
(missing libpng setjmp recovery)
A authenticated client that can submit an image print job
can abort the CUPS filter process by supplying a malformed PNG.
(bsc#1273146,GHSA-7mxj-cfq5-84ch)
- Provide cups-browsed as separated cups-filters-cups-browsed
sub-package so users can uninstall this sub-package
to completely avoid the generic security risk of cups-browsed.
cups-browsed auto-creates local print queues for printers which
are announced via DNS-SD. It is a generic security risk when a
service (cups-browsed.service) accepts any (possibly malicious)
incoming information from any host in the local network
(i.e. any DNS-SD announcements) and from that information
it auto-creates print queue configurations for CUPS
(where its server program cupsd runs as root).
For more information see the openSUSE support database article
https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:CUPS_and_SANE_Firewall_settings
- Fixed a regression Error about PPD file during 'driverless' printer setup
(boo#1256868) and ppd pull out from [driverless] printer feature broken
(bsc#1256977)
- unbreak qpdf [bsc#1253678]
- CVE-2024-47176: Fixed cups-browsed binds to UDP INADDR_ANY:631 (bsc#1230939)
and to avoid CVE-2024-47850 cups-browsed can be abused to
initiate remote DDoS against third-party targets (bsc#1231294)
by removing legacy CUPS Browsing support in cups-browsed
(introduced 2012) which is no longer needed nowadays.
CUPS browsing was removed from CUPS since version 1.6.
Legacy CUPS Browsing is a generic security risk, see the
section Automated print queue setup via cups-browsed in
https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:CUPS_and_SANE_Firewall_settings
- CVE-2024-47076: Fixed lack of input sanitization in cfGetPrinterAttributes5 (bsc#1230937)
- CVE-2024-47175: Fixed lack of input sanitization in _ppdCreateFromIPP() (bsc#1230932)
