Security vulnerabilities have been discovered in Xerox VersaLink C7025 Multifunction printers (MFPs) that could allow attackers to capture authentication credentials. The flaw, discovered by Rapid7 researcher Deral Heiland, enables malicious actors to intercept Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) and Server Message Block (SMB) authentication data through pass-back attacks. The vulnerabilities, tracked as CVE-2024-12510 and CVE-2024-12511, threaten organizations relying on these devices for printing, scanning, and document management.

Xerox has released firmware updates addressing these issues, urging customers to install patches immediately. Rapid7 recommends additional safeguards: restrict admin access to MFPs, disable unnecessary services like FTP, and implement network segmentation to isolate printers from critical AD infrastructure. The vulnerabilities underscore the risks of treating IoT devices as perimeter appliances rather than core network assets.
