"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1791915424 advisory.

  - OpenPrinting CUPS through 2.4.20 contains a resource-exhaustion vulnerability in the submission-timeout
    handling of cupsdCheckJobs(). The scheduler suppresses timeout processing for all pending jobs whenever
    any client connection has an in-flight Send-Document operation, without matching that connection to the
    job being examined. A client allowed to reach the IPP service can hold an incomplete HTTP request
    containing parsed Send-Document headers before operation authorization, preventing unrelated incomplete
    jobs from expiring. Where Create-Job submission is allowed, incomplete jobs can accumulate until MaxJobs
    is exhausted and further legitimate print submissions are rejected. The suppression ends when the held
    connection closes. (CVE-2026-107885)

  - OpenPrinting CUPS before 2.4.20 contains a double-free in printer-class management. When CUPS-Add-Modify-
    Class replaces an existing class member list, add_class() frees pclass->printers without clearing the
    pointer. If subsequent validation fails, the class retains the dangling pointer; CUPS-Delete-Class
    subsequently frees the same allocation in cupsdDeletePrinter(). A client authorized to modify and delete
    classes can cause scheduler-wide denial of service. The default policy requires @SYSTEM privileges.
    (CVE-2026-107886)

  - OpenPrinting CUPS before 2.4.20 contains a NULL pointer dereference in cupsdCheckJobs() when a job marked
    job-held-on-create refers to a temporary printer that has been automatically deleted. Temporary-printer
    cleanup can remove the destination without canceling its held jobs, and the scheduler dereferences the
    NULL result of cupsdFindDest() while checking holding_new_jobs. This terminates cupsd and interrupts all
    queues managed by that process. In some plausible scenarios, an unprivileged submission can trigger this.
    (CVE-2026-107888)

  - OpenPrinting CUPS before 2.4.20 contains a NULL pointer dereference caused by repeated IPP group tags in
    job-creation requests. IPP parsing creates unnamed separator attributes with IPP_TAG_ZERO, but add_job()
    converts these separators to IPP_TAG_JOB. During job startup, get_options()/ipp_length() subsequently
    calls strlen() on a NULL attribute name, terminating cupsd and disrupting all queues. A single crafted
    Print-Job request can trigger the crash when the client can reach the scheduler and submit jobs to an
    accepting, enabled queue supporting the submitted document format. Anonymous submission is possible when
    permitted by listener and access-control configuration. (CVE-2026-107890)

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