CVE-2010-2941: cups: cupsd memory corruption vulnerability

Severity: Critical

CVSS Score: 9.8

ipp.c in cupsd in CUPS 1.4.4 and earlier does not properly allocate memory for attribute values with invalid string data types, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted IPP request.
