"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-010663 advisory.

    OpenPrinting CUPS is an open source printing system for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. In
    versions 2.4.16 and prior, a local unprivileged user can coerce cupsd into authenticating to an attacker-
    controlled localhost IPP service with a reusable Authorization: Local ... token. That token is enough to
    drive /admin/ requests on localhost, and the attacker can combine CUPS-Create-Local-Printer with printer-
    is-shared=true to persist a file:///... queue even though the normal FileDevice policy rejects such URIs.
    Printing to that queue gives an arbitrary root file overwrite; the PoC below uses that primitive to drop a
    sudoers fragment and demonstrate root command execution. At time of publication, there are no publicly
    available patches.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.

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