Vulnerable systems:
* TCP/IP Printer Configuration Utility for Apple LaserWriter 12/640 PS
The Apple LaserWriter device does not set a password for telnet access. As a result, the telnet port will be left exposed to unrestricted remote access. Remote users with malicious intent will be able to access the device to cause a denial of service, or potentially monitor printer activity to gather information that may be used to compromise systems.
Solution:
Set the telnet password manually after you setup the printer.
