Amazon Linux 2023 Security Advisory: ALAS2023-2025-1320
Advisory Released Date: 2026-01-07
Advisory Updated Date: 2026-01-07
Severity:
Medium
Issue Overview:
A client that connects to cupsd but sends slow messages, e.g. only one byte per second, delays cupsd as a whole, such that it becomes unusable by other clients. (CVE-2025-58436)
A user in the lpadmin group can use the cups web ui to change the config and insert a malicious line.
Then the cupsd process which runs as root will parse the new config and cause an out-of-bound write. (CVE-2025-61915)
Affected Packages:
cups
