CVE-2024-9419

Code execution via malicious XPS processing

Published Oct 30, 2024 · Updated Oct 30, 2024

Out-of-bounds write in HP Smart Universal Print Driver before 4.07.1.3204 allows local users to execute code via a malicious XPS print job. HP identifies XPS processing as the trigger but has not disclosed the affected routine or the validation failure that permits a write beyond a buffer. An attacker must submit the crafted print job from a local account; successful exploitation can corrupt memory, execute code, or elevate privileges.
