A CVSS 9.9 severity vulnerability affecting all systems using the CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) allows remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary commands when a print job is started. This is less severe than vulnerabilities like EternalBlue but still poses a significant risk, especially if systems are exposed to the internet. Properly configured firewalls can mitigate some threats, and updating CUPS is recommended to prevent exploitation.
