Description

The ppdCreatePPDFromIPP2 function in libppd doesn't properly check or clean IPP attributes before writing them to a temporary PPD file. This means that a remote attacker, who has control of or has hijacked an exposed printer (through UPD or mDNS), could send a harmful IPP attribute and potentially insert malicious commands into the PPD file.
