CVE-2018-4183 [HIGH] CVE-2018-4183 cups: Sandbox bypass due to profile misconfiguration
CVE-2018-4183 cups: Sandbox bypass due to profile misconfiguration
The sandbox profile dynamically generated by cupsdCreateProfile() unintentionally allows write access to /etc/cups. This can be used by an attacker that has obtained sandboxed root access to alter /etc/cups/cups-files.conf, leading to unsandboxed root code execution.
