Impact on Multifunction Printers

There is a possibility that authentication credentials configured for external services—such as LDAP, SMTP, FTP, SMB, or WebDAV—may be exposed by means of a malicious server connection.

Vulnerability Specific Recommendation

  1. Ensure that the administrator password is secure. If it remains set to its factory default, please change it immediately to a strong complex password.
  2. Restrict non-Admin users from making any address book destination changes.
  3. When utilizing any external service, avoid registering accounts with elevated privileges—such as those used in systems like Active Directory—on the multifunction printers.

General Security Recommendations

To ensure a secure operating posture for your multifunction devices, and to reduce exposure to the vulnerabilities described in this advisory, DEVELOP strongly recommends applying the following configuration best practices:
