It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-107888 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: OpenPrinting CUPS. 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-2026-107888/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-107888/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-107888","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-107888/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-107888","record":{"aliases":["AZL-106890","BELL-CVE-2026-107888","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-107888","ECHO-dae6-2944-98b5","GHSA-95mw-jr52-2v5f","GHSA-qqm8-4q5h-jg55","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-107888"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"CUPS printing server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unprivileged user can cause a denial of service in CUPS by triggering a NULL pointer dereference during temporary printer cleanup.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"cups","vendor":"openprinting"}],"cvss":{"score":5.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"OpenPrinting CUPS before 2.4.20 contains a NULL pointer dereference in cupsdCheckJobs() when a job marked job-held-on-create refers to a temporary printer that has been automatically deleted. Temporary-printer cleanup can remove the destination without canceling its held jobs, and the scheduler dereferences the NULL result of cupsdFindDest() while checking holding_new_jobs. This terminates cupsd and interrupts all queues managed by that process. In some plausible scenarios, an unprivileged submission can trigger this.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Null dereference in CUPS","id":"CVE-2026-107888","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Keycloak-services: keycloak-services: stored xss on login page via kcsanitize bypass","id":"CVE-2026-107889"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Advanced Twenty Seventeen \u003c= 1.3.1 - Subscriber+ Site Theme Switch via ats_create_child_theme","id":"CVE-2026-107887"},"products":["CUPS"],"published":"2026-10-09","related":[{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"cups has Authentication bypass with AuthType Negotiate","id":"CVE-2025-58060","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-09-11"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Path traversal in cups","id":"CVE-2026-34978","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-03"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"cups: Remote DoS via null dereference","id":"CVE-2025-58364","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-09-11"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"OpenPrinting CUPS: Shared PostScript queue lets anonymous Print-Job requests reach `lp` code execution over the network","id":"CVE-2026-34980","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-03"},{"cvss_score":6,"headline":"OpenPrinting CUPS vulnerable to stack based out-of-bound write","id":"CVE-2025-61915","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-11-29"},{"cvss_score":5.7,"headline":"CUPS copy_model() creates a predictable PPD tempfile without O_EXCL/O_NOFOLLOW (symlink TOCTOU, lp → root)","id":"CVE-2026-55480","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-15"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"OpenPrinting CUPS: root-side banner file disclosure","id":"CVE-2026-61702","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-15"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"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":"2026-10-15","vendors":["OpenPrinting"]},"summary":"An unprivileged user can cause a denial of service in CUPS by triggering a NULL pointer dereference during temporary printer cleanup.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-107888/"}
