What is CVE-2013-4615?

The vulnerability allows remote attackers to exploit Canon printers, causing them to hang by sending specially crafted parameters. The issue arises when the LAN_TXT24 parameter is improperly handled by the English/pages_MacUS/cgi_lan.cgi interface, followed by a request to the lan_set_content.html page. While Canon suggests that these devices can be operated securely within their environments, the vulnerability highlights potential risks if printers are not adequately safeguarded against unauthorized network access.
