Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability. Workaround: To mitigate this issue, restrict network access to the CUPS daemon to only trusted hosts or localhost. This can be achieved by configuring firewall rules to block access to TCP port 631 from untrusted networks. For example, using `firewalld`: `sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --remove-port=631/tcp` `sudo firewall-cmd --reload` Alternatively, configure CUPS to only listen on localhost by modifying the `Listen` directive in `/etc/cups/cupsd.conf` to `Listen localhost:631`. After modifying the configuration, the CUPS service must be restarted for changes to take effect, which may temporarily interrupt printing services: `sudo systemctl restart cups`
