CARPS2 Printer Driver, published on 29 Sep 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-7698 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Canon Inc. CARPS2 Printer Driver. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-7698/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-7698/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-7698","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-7698/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-7698","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6c45-p48h-qhp3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"hardware_firmware","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Canon printer drivers","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Out-of-bounds read in Canon printer drivers allows attackers to cause denial of service or disclose sensitive information via malicious print jobs.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Canon","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"Out-of-bounds read vulnerabilities in print processing of Generic Plus PCL6 Printer Driver / Generic Plus UFR II Printer Driver / Generic Plus LIPS4 Printer Driver / Generic Plus LIPSLX Printer Driver / Generic Plus PS Printer Driver / UFRII LT Printer Driver / CARPS2 Printer Driver / Generic FAX Driver / LIPS4 Printer Driver / LIPSLX Printer Driver / UFR II Printer Driver / PS Printer Driver / PCL6 Printer Driver","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in CARPS2 Printer Driver","id":"CVE-2025-7698","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"An improper access control vulnerability was found in the EZ Sync Manager of ADM","id":"CVE-2025-7699"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Deserialization in Integration for Google Sheets and Contact Form 7, WPForms, Elementor, Ninja Forms","id":"CVE-2025-7697"},"products":["CARPS2 Printer Driver","Generic FAX Driver","Generic Plus LIPS4 Printer Driver","Generic Plus LIPSLX Printer Driver","Generic Plus PCL6 Printer Driver","Generic Plus PS Printer Driver","Generic Plus UFR II Printer Driver","LIPS4 Printer Driver","LIPSLX Printer Driver","PCL6 Printer Driver","PS Printer Driver","UFR II Printer Driver","UFRII LT Printer Driver"],"published":"2025-09-29","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-03-15","vendors":["Canon Inc."]},"summary":"Out-of-bounds read in Canon printer drivers allows attackers to cause denial of service or disclose sensitive information via malicious print jobs.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-7698/"}
