What is CVE-2018-17210?

CVE-2018-17210 is a high-severity authentication bypass vulnerability in n/a, published on 19 Jul 2019. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

Official description

An issue was discovered in PrinterOn Central Print Services (CPS) through 4.1.4. The core components that create and launch a print job do not perform complete verification of the session cookie that is supplied to them. As a result, an attacker with guest/pseudo-guest level permissions can bypass the session checks (that would otherwise logout a low-privileged user) by calling the core print job components directly via crafted HTTP GET and POST requests.

Weakness: CWE-285
