Persistence Vulnerability in Lexmark Devices

CVE-2022-29850

What is CVE-2022-29850?

Certain Lexmark products allow an attacker, who has previously compromised a device, to retain access even after the device is restarted. This security flaw presents a significant risk as it enables unauthorized users to maintain control over the affected systems, potentially leading to data breaches or further compromises. Users of Lexmark multifunction and laser printers should ensure their devices are patched and monitored closely for unusual activity to mitigate this risk.
