    🔴 HP'nin Linux yazdırma yazılımı HPLIP'te kritik bir RCE açığı tespit edildi! HPLIP'te bulunan CVE-2026-14544 (CVSS 9.8) açığı, hpcups bileşenindeki integer overflow hatası nedeniyle saldırganların kötü amaçlı hazırlanmış bir print job göndererek hedef sistemde uzaktan keyfi kod çalıştırmasına (RCE) olanak tanıyabiliyor. Açık, kimlik doğrulaması veya kullanıcı etkileşimi gerektirmiyor ve daha önce giderildiği düşünülen CVE-2026-8631 açığı için yayınlanan düzeltmenin eksik uygulanmasından kaynaklanıyor. Etkilenen sistemler arasında RHEL 8, RHEL 9 ve RHEL 10 bulunuyor. Özellikle ağ üzerinden erişilebilen yazdırma sunucuları risk altında.

    Post summary

    HP’s HPLIP printer software has a critical integer‑overflow RCE (CVE‑2026‑14544) that allows unauthenticated remote code execution on RHEL 8‑10 servers.

    🚨 CRITICAL - HPLIP hpcups integer overflow in print data processing (CVE-2026-14544) CVE-2026-14544 is a critical flaw in HPLIP’s hpcups print processing path (HP’s CUPS filter/driver stack) triggered by specially crafted print data. The underlying issue is an integer overflow due to incorrect bounds/size handling, noted as an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-8631. An attacker can exploit this by sending a malicious print job to a system using hpcups (e.g., via network printing to a shared printer/queue), requiring only the ability to submit print data to the affected pipeline. Successful exploitation can lead to arbitrary code execution in the printing context and potentially privilege escalation to root depending on how the filter is invoked by the spooler. 👉 Affected: hplip (versions with the incomplete CVE-2026-8631 fix; exact range pending vendor advisory) | Upgrade to vendor-fixed release (not yet specified — treat as suspicious)

    Post summary

    The post announces a critical integer‑overflow flaw in HPLIP’s hpcups that can be exploited via crafted print jobs, with an upcoming vendor patch expected.
