Red Hat libcupsfilters: infinite loop
High7.5CVE-2026-64611 · Published Jul 23, 2026 · updated Aug 19, 2026
A flaw was found in libcupsfilters. The cfIEEE1284NormalizeMakeModel() function enters an infinite loop when processing a printer-advertised IEEE-1284 device ID with an empty model field, causing sustained CPU consumption. A network-adjacent attacker could exploit this by broadcasting a specially crafted printer advertisement, leading to denial of service.
