Check Point: Fax Machines, Networks Vulnerable to Attack

Check Point security researchers exploit vulnerabilities in HP inkjet printer’s fax system. They were able to take complete control of the printer and access to all systems on a network. The company notified HP officials about the two vulnerabilities before announcing the results of the research.

The vulnerability is a jackpot for hackers, according to cybersecurity expert Joseph Kucic.”]
