EUVDB-ID: #VU23042
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 7.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2019-8675
CWE-ID:
CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow
Exploit availability: No

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-8696
CWE-ID:
CWE-121 - Stack-based buffer overflow
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing SNMP requests within the asn1_get_packed() function in cups/snmp.c. A remote attacker with access to the the SNMP service can send a specially crafted request to the application, trigger a stack-based buffer oveflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
MitigationUpdate the affected packages.
