PoC: Unauthenticated RCE on cups-browsed

Facebook X Medium Python Kali

📜 Vulnerability information

  • Published: 2024-09-26
  • Base Score: 5.3 (MEDIUM)
  • EPSS Score: 0.06% Probability of exploitation.
  • Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N
  • Description: CUPS is a standards-based, open-source printing system, and cups-browsed contains network printing functionality including, but not limited to, auto-discovering print services and shared printers. cups-browsed binds to INADDR_ANY:631, causing it to trust any packet from any source, and can cause the Get-Printer-Attributes IPP request to an attacker controlled URL. When combined with other vulnerabilities, such as CVE-2024-47076, CVE-2024-47175, and CVE-2024-47177, an attacker can execute arbitrary commands remotely on the target machine without authentication when a malicious printer is printed to.

🛠️ Installation

$ python3 -m venv venv && source venv/bin/activate
$ pip install zeroconf ippserver colorama
$ python3 CVE-2024-47176.py -h

💡 Systems that are potentially vulnerable must have all the following conditions:

  • Affected GNU/Linux distributions
  • The cups-browsed package (version 2.0.1 or lower) must be installed on target machine
  • The cups-browsed service is started/enabled and listening on UDP port 631
  • The server must be accessible to the attacker (either publicly facing internet or attacker has network access locally)
  • To exploit these chain of vulnerabilities, an attacker must trick a user into printing from a malicious printer server that has been created by the attacker.

CVE-2024-47176.yml

id: CVE-2024-47176

info:
  name: CUPS - Remote Code Execution
  author: princechaddha
  severity: high
  description: |
    CUPS is a standards-based, open-source printing system, and cups-browsed contains network printing functionality including, but not limited to, auto-discovering print services and shared printers. cups-browsed binds to INADDR_ANY-631, causing it to trust any packet from any source, and can cause the Get-Printer-Attributes IPP request to an attacker controlled URL.
    Due to the service binding to *-631 ( INADDR_ANY ), multiple bugs in cups-browsed can be exploited in sequence to introduce a malicious printer to the system. This chain of exploits ultimately enables an attacker to execute arbitrary commands remotely on the target machine without authentication when a print job is started. This poses a significant security risk over the network. Notably, this vulnerability is particularly concerning as it can be exploited from the public internet, potentially exposing a vast number of systems to remote attacks if their CUPS services are enabled.
  impact: |
    Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
  remediation: |
    Apply the necessary patch or upgrade to a non-vulnerable version of CUPS.
