"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2025:1745586793 advisory.

  - 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-2024-47076)

  - libcupsfilters <= 2.1b1 cfGetPrinterAttributes5 does not validate or sanitize the IPP attributes returned
    from an IPP server, providing attacker controlled data to the rest of the CUPS system. (CVE-2024-47076)

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