Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs bug fix and enhancement update
Severity
Moderate
Notes
Topic: An update for Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs is now available.
Details: This update includes the following RPMs: cups: * cups-2.4.19-4.1.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * cups-client-2.4.19-4.1.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * cups-devel-2.4.19-4.1.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * cups-filesystem-2.4.19-4.1.hum1 (noarch) * cups-ipptool-2.4.19-4.1.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * cups-libs-2.4.19-4.1.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * cups-lpd-2.4.19-4.1.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * cups-printerapp-2.4.19-4.1.hum1 (aarch64, x86_64) * cups-2.4.19-4.1.hum1.src (src)

The cupsUTF32ToUTF8() function in CUPS's cups/transcode.c lacks a source-length bound and can read past the end of the source buffer, resulting in a heap out-of-bounds read. This is reachable via SNMP supply-description parsing in backend/snmp-supplies.c with attacker-controlled content.

CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds Read
