Security

This article assesses the large-scale exposure of systems to multiple CVEs affecting the CUPS printing service, which can be chained together to achieve unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE). We provide an overview of how these vulnerabilities, including CVE-2024-47176, work in tandem, walking through the exploit flow. Additionally, we analyze how many systems are potentially vulnerable and highlight a unique behavior observed during testing.
