Descriptions

The default configuration of the PJL Access value in the File System External Access settings on HP LaserJet MFP printers, Color LaserJet MFP printers, and LaserJet 4100, 4200, 4300, 5100, 8150, and 9000 printers enables PJL commands that use the device's filesystem, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a command inside a print job, as demonstrated by a directory traversal attack.

La configuración por defecto del valor PJL Access en las opciones de File System External Access de las impresoras HP LaserJet MFP, Color LaserJet MFP, LaserJet 4100, 4200, 4300, 5100, 8150, y 9000, activan los comandos PJL que usa el sistema de archivos del dispositivo, lo que permite a atacantes remotos la lectura de archivos de su elección a través de un comando en el trabajo activo como se ha demostrado con un ataque de salto de directorio.

A directory traversal vulnerability has been found in the PJL file system access interface of various HP LaserJet MFP devices. File system access through PJL is usually restricted to a specific part of the file system. Using a pathname such as 0:\..\..\..\ it is possible to get access to the complete file system of the device.
