A lot of drama around the disclosure of those issues was going on for maybe a month now, with public tweets about the disclosure process and the issues affecting many distros but excluding detail on the issues (not even CUPS was specifically mentioned until very recently). Per those tweets, the issues were communicated to some distro vendors via CERT/CC VINCE and a vendor planned to bring them to the distros list on September 30 with public disclosure on October 6. Unfortunately, the information leaked prematurely and thus Simone decided on full public disclosure today at 20:00 UTC pre-announcing it only 2 hours in advance.
Once it was learned that the information was leaked, the vendors suggested ending the embargo today, and both evilsocket & OpenPrinting agreed to it, with the coordinated end at 20:00 UTC. OpenPrinting has started publishing fixes as well now: CVE-2024-47175: https://github.com/OpenPrinting/libppd/commit/d681747ebf CVE-2024-47076: https://github.com/OpenPrinting/libcupsfilters/commit/95576ec3 and a temporary workaround for CVE-2024-47176 in: https://github.com/OpenPrinting/cups-browsed/commit/1debe6b140c -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersm...@oracle.com Oracle Solaris Engineering - https://blogs.oracle.com/solaris
