NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream sane-backends-devel package and not the sane-backends-devel package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.1 relevant fixed versions and status.

A heap buffer overflow in SANE Backends before 1.0.30 allows a malicious device connected to the same local network as the victim to execute arbitrary code, aka GHSL-2020-080.
