OpenPrinting CUPS is an open source printing system for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. In versions 2.4.12 and earlier, when the `AuthType` is set to anything but `Basic`, if the request contains an `Authorization: Basic ...` header, the password is not checked. This results in authentication bypass. Any configuration that allows an `AuthType` that is not `Basic` is affected. Version 2.4.13 fixes the issue.

CVE-2025-58364 [HIGH] CUPS vulnerabilities
Title: CUPS vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in CUPS.
It was discovered that CUPS incorrectly handled authentication types other
than Basic. An attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass
authentication. (CVE-2025-58060)
It was discovered that CUPS incorrectly handled deserialization and
validation of printer attributes. An attacker could possibly use this
issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2025-58364)
Instructions: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.

cups: Authentication Bypass in CUPS Authorization Handling
OpenPrinting CUPS is an open source printing system for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. In versions 2.4.12 and earlier, when the `AuthType` is set to anything but `Basic`, if the request contains an `Authorization: Basic ...` header, the password is not checked. This results in authentication bypass. Any configuration that allows an `AuthType` that is not `Basic` is affected. Version 2.4.13 fixes the issue.
A flaw was found in CUPS, a widely used printing service on Linux and UNIX-like systems. The issue arises when authentication is configured to use a method other than Basic, but the attacker sends an HTTP request with a Basic authentication header. Due to improper validation in the cupsdAuthorize() function, the p

FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to additional products is identified, we will update the CVE to reflect this.
