A stack based buffer overflow vulnerability is present in OpenPrinting ippusbxd 1.34. A specially configured printer that supports IPP-over-USB can cause a buffer overflow which can lead to a arbitrary code execution in a privileged service. To trigger the vulnerability, a malicious device would need to be connected to the vulnerable system over USB.
A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function).
