The remote host is missing an update for the 'cups' package(s) announced via the USN-3577-1 advisory. CUPS permitted HTTP requests with the Host header set to 'localhost.localdomain' from the loopback interface, allowing potential exploitation for sensitive information or control printers via a DNS rebinding attack (CVE-2017-18190)
