Printing interruption via unallocated memory access
Published Sep 29, 2025 · Updated Sep 29, 2025
Unallocated memory access in Canon Generic Plus printer drivers 3.30 and earlier allows remote attackers to interrupt printing. During print processing, the drivers access memory that has not been allocated, but Canon has not disclosed the specific parser, function, or input field responsible. Exploitation requires the driver to process print data supplied by a malicious application; the published impact is limited to a printing denial of service.
