CVE-2009-1568 describes a stack-based buffer overflow in the ienipp.ocx ActiveX control within Novell iPrint Client versions prior to 5.32. This vulnerability allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected systems by supplying a crafted, excessively long target-frame parameter. With a CVSS score of 9.3, this flaw is highly severe, requiring medium attack complexity but leading to complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While not listed in CISA KEV, a Metasploit module and an ExploitDB entry confirm the existence of public exploit code, though there is no evidence of active exploitation or significant community discussion.
