Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2011-1705 is a legacy Novell iPrint Client flaw that could let an attacker run code on a user's machine if the vulnerable client processes a malicious printer URL. It matters mainly where old iPrint clients remain installed on workstations. Exposure is most likely on legacy endpoints running Novell iPrint Client earlier than 5.64. The supplied affected-product metadata is incomplete, so inventory should be based on installed software and client version, not the placeholder CPE data. Prioritize if Novell iPrint is still present in the estate. This is old but potentially serious because vulnerable clients could expose workstations to remote code execution through print-related URL handling. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Novell iPrint Client to version 5.64 or later where still deployed.; Remove the iPrint Client from endpoints that no longer require it.; Check Novell guidance for any environment-specific update or workaround details..
