"The CentOS Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
TuxCare CENTOS7:CLSA-2026:1792072476 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 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.");
