Descriptions

cups-browsed in cups-filters before 1.0.53 allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions in opportunistic circumstances by leveraging a malformed cups-browsed.conf BrowseAllow directive that is interpreted as granting browse access to all IP addresses.

cups-browsed en cups-filters anterior a 1.0.53 permite a atacantes remotos evadir restricciones de acceso en circunstancias oportunistas mediante el aprovechamiento de un directivo cups-browsed.conf BrowseAllow malformado que se interpreta como si cediera acceso de navegación a todas las direcciones IP.

A flaw was found in the way the cups-browsed daemon interpreted the "BrowseAllow" directive in the cups-browsed.conf file. An attacker able to add a malformed "BrowseAllow" directive to the cups-browsed.conf file could use this flaw to bypass intended access restrictions.
