CERT-Bund, the Computer Emergency Response Team for German federal authorities and agencies, has put out an alert, warning users of two security vulnerabilities in an assortment of Lexmark\u2019s multi-functional printer devices.<\/p>
The manufacturer had already published a warning in this regard at the end of August<\/a>. With the security gap which has been rated the more serious of the two, an attack can be carried out by way of using a manipulated color fax either to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the service<\/a>; the other one can create crash, resulting in a Denial of Service condition. While Lexmark has already made updated firmware correcting the vulnerabilities available, a short-term workaround until the update has been installed would be to deactivate the option for receiving color faxes (which virtually never occur in the real world).<\/p> Lexmark customers who have connected their MFPs to the Cloud Fax Services<\/a> provided by Retarus, can confidently and safely ignore the warning. That\u2019s because faxes sent to MFPs are received via Retarus\u2019 carrier-grade infrastructure and conveyed via Fax2Mail to the end devices<\/a>. Retarus is an official fax partner for Lexmark<\/a> in the EMEA, USA and APAC regions.<\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CERT-Bund, the Computer Emergency Response Team for German federal authorities and agencies, has put out an alert, warning users of two security vulnerabilities in an assortment of Lexmark\u2019s multi-functional printer devices.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":13138,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ret_read_more_text":"","ret_thumb_border":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3066,3068],"tags":[1762,2129],"ret_content_type":[3094],"class_list":["post-31287","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ciberseguridad","category-comunicacion-empresarial","tag-cloud-fax-es","tag-lexmark","ret_content_type-noticias-del-sector"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
