Hundreds of Brother printer models are affected by a critical, unpatchable vulnerability (CVE-2024-51978) that allows attackers to generate the default admin password using the devices serial numberinformation thats easily discoverable via other flaws.
748 total models across Brother, Fujifilm, Ricoh, Toshiba, and Konica Minolta are impacted, with millions of devices at risk globally.
Attackers can:
Gain unauthenticated admin access
Pivot to full remote code execution
Exfiltrate credentials for LDAP, FTP, and more
Move laterally through your network
Brother says the vulnerability cannot be fixed in firmware and requires a change in manufacturing. For now, mitigation = change the default admin password immediately.
Our pentest team regularly highlights printer security as a critical path to system compromiseand todays news is another example that underscores this risk. This is your reminder: Printers are not set-and-forget devices. Treat them like any other endpointmonitor, patch, and lock them down.
Need help testing your network for exploitable print devices Contact us and our pentest team can help!
