Threats Tagged 'cve-2026-64612'

Libcupsfilters provides a library, which implements common functions used in cups-browsed daemon and printing filters, and additional files as banner templates and character sets. The filters are used in CUPS daemon and in printer applications. Security Fix(es): * libcupsfilters: cups-filters: libcupsfilters: CPU exhaustion via infinite loop in cfIEEE1284NormalizeMakeModel() (CVE-2026-64611) * libcupsfilters: cups-filters: libcupsfilters: CUPS image filter process abort via malformed PNG (CVE-2026-64612) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

A flaw was found in libcupsfilters and cups-filters. The PNG image reading function creates a libpng reader without installing an error recovery handler, causing the CUPS image filter process to abort when processing a malformed PNG file. An unauthenticated attacker could exploit this by submitting a specially crafted PNG print job, leading to denial of service of the in-flight print job.
