Summary
cups vulnerability
Details
Jann Horn discovered that CUPS permitted HTTP requests with the Host header set to "localhost.localdomain" from the loopback interface. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website in their web browser, an attacker could potentially exploit this to obtain sensitive information or control printers, via a DNS rebinding attack. (CVE-2017-18190)
