Vulnerable Systems:
* Novell iPrint
User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The flaw exists within the nipplib component which is used by both the ActiveX and Netscape compatible browser plugins. When handling the op-printer-list-all-jobs parameter from the user specified printer-url the process blindly copies user supplied data into a fixed-length buffer on the stack. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the browser.
