Yes, this is a design flaw in how CUPS handles its URLs. As described, I think this is a only a minor issue, since the printer name must be known, and no attacker-input is used (it prints the pre-configured test page, and not text that the attacker can control). However, further investigation into CUPS is needed, in case there are additional vectors.
