What is CVE-2023-32324?

CVE-2023-32324 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Debian Debian Linux, published on 1 Jun 2023. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

OpenPrinting CUPS is an open source printing system. In versions 2.4.2 and prior, a heap buffer overflow vulnerability would allow a remote attacker to launch a denial of service (DoS) attack. A buffer overflow vulnerability in the function `format_log_line` could allow remote attackers to cause a DoS on the affected system. Exploitation of the vulnerability can be triggered when the configuration file `cupsd.conf` sets the value of `loglevel `to `DEBUG`. No known patches or workarounds exist at time of publication.

Weakness: CWE-787, CWE-122
