Last modified
CVE-2010-0302 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.5/10 on the CVSS scale. Use-after-free vulnerability in the abstract file-descriptor handling interface in the cupsdDoSelect function in scheduler/select.c in the scheduler in cupsd in CUPS before 1.4.4, when kqueue or epoll is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash or hang) via a client disconnection during listing of a large number of print jobs, related to improperly maintaining a reference count. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information. EPSS estimates a 2.58% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
