Vulnerability identifier: #VU98064

CSH Severity: Medium

CVSS v4: 8.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-47850

CWE-ID: CWE-862

Exploitation vector: Remote access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to missing authorization when handling IPP UDP packets. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted IPP UDP packet requesting a printer to be added and force the application to send an HTTP POST request to an arbitrary IP address and port.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to perform DDoS amplification attacks.
