CVE-2006-2112

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

A vulnerability in the Fuji Xerox FXPS print engine allows attackers to use the FTP printing interface as a proxy (FTP bounce). By manipulating PORT arguments in FTP requests, an attacker can connect to systems that would otherwise be restricted.

Risk Assessment

The risk involves bypassing network security controls and gaining unauthorized access to internal systems. An attacker can use the printer as a relay to scan or attack other devices on the network.

Recommendation

Update the device firmware to the versions recommended by the vendor (DocuPrint before 20060628, Network Option Card before 5.13). Additionally, restrict FTP interface access to trusted hosts only.
