Medium
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
CUPS versions prior to 1.2.9
Description:
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in the service hanging via a "partially-negotiated" SSL connection. This prevents other requests from being accepted, leading to a disruption in the availability of protected information. The exploitation of this issue can be carried out remotely.
Recommendations:
For versions prior to 1.2.9, update to version 1.2.9 or later to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the CUPS service to minimize the risk of exploitation.
