CVE-2017-2788

CVE-2017-2788 is a critical heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability affecting the psnotifyd application within the Pharos PopUp printer client version 9.0. This flaw allows for remote code execution without user interaction, as the vulnerable client service always listens and runs with root privileges. With a CVSS score of 10.0, it presents a severe risk due to its network-based attack vector and low attack complexity, potentially leading to complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified, and community discussion is minimal, its high FAUCET Risk Score of 95/100 indicates significant theoretical danger.
