Descriptions

On certain Lexmark devices that communicate with an LDAP or SMTP server, a malicious administrator can discover LDAP or SMTP credentials by changing that server's hostname to one that they control, and then capturing the credentials that are sent there. This occurs because stored credentials are not automatically deleted upon that type of hostname change.

En determinados dispositivos de Lexmark que se comunican con un servidor LDAP o SMTP, un administrador malicioso puede descubrir credenciales LDAP o SMTP, cambiando el nombre de host del servidor a uno que ya controlan y, posteriormente, capturando las credenciales que se envían a dicho servidor. Esto ocurre debido a que las credenciales almacenadas no se eliminan de forma automática a la hora de cambiar dicho tipo de nombre de host.
