+From e052dc44da9d12adfbebc51de4975fbadb2ce356 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
+From: Michael R Sweet <msweet@msweet.org>

+Subject: [PATCH] Don't allow local certificates over the loopback interface,
+ drop support for writing to plain files.
+
+OpenPrinting CUPS is an open source printing system for Linux and other
+Unix-like operating systems. In versions 2.4.16 and prior, a local
+unprivileged user can coerce cupsd into authenticating to an
+attacker-controlled localhost IPP service with a reusable Authorization:
+Local ... token. That token is enough to drive /admin/ requests on
+localhost, and the attacker can combine CUPS-Create-Local-Printer with
+printer-is-shared=true to persist a file: ///... queue even though the
+normal FileDevice policy rejects such URIs. Printing to that queue gives
+an arbitrary root file overwrite; the PoC below uses that primitive to
+drop a sudoers fragment and demonstrate root command execution.
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-34990
+
+Upstream-Status: Backport [ https://github.com/OpenPrinting/cups/commit/e052dc44da9d12adfbebc51de4975fbadb2ce356 ]
