"The version of cups installed on the remote host is prior to 2.1.4 / 2.4.6. It is, therefore, affected by a
vulnerability as referenced in the SSA:2023-173-01 advisory.

  - OpenPrinting CUPS is a standards-based, open source printing system for Linux and other Unix-like
    operating systems. Starting in version 2.0.0 and prior to version 2.4.6, CUPS logs data of free memory to
    the logging service AFTER the connection has been closed, when it should have logged the data right
    before. This is a use-after-free bug that impacts the entire cupsd process. The exact cause of this issue
    is the function `httpClose(con->http)` being called in `scheduler/client.c`. The problem is that httpClose
    always, provided its argument is not null, frees the pointer at the end of the call, only for
    cupsdLogClient to pass the pointer to httpGetHostname. This issue happens in function `cupsdAcceptClient`
    if LogLevel is warn or higher and in two scenarios: there is a double-lookup for the IP Address
    (HostNameLookups Double is set in `cupsd.conf`) which fails to resolve, or if CUPS is compiled with TCP
    wrappers and the connection is refused by rules from `/etc/hosts.allow` and `/etc/hosts.deny`. Version
    2.4.6 has a patch for this issue. (CVE-2023-34241)

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