I assume you're referring to the lines like this:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:ipp 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN root 22447 947/cupsd

That foreign address is just a placeholder. Nothing is actually connected. The process is listening for a connection and will accept one from anywhere. It's up to the firewall to restrict that.
