PrinterLogic Client Multiple Vulnerabilities (May 3, 2019)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 152101

Synopsis

The remote host has an application installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of PrinterLogic Client installed on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities:

- The PrinterLogic Print Management software does not validate, or incorrectly validates, the PrinterLogic management portal's SSL certificate. When a certificate is invalid or malicious, it might allow an attacker to spoof a trusted entity by using a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack. The software might connect to a malicious host while believing it is a trusted host, or the software might be deceived into accepting spoofed data that appears to originate from a trusted host. (CVE-2018-5408)

- The PrinterLogic Print Management software updates and executes the code without sufficiently verifying the origin and integrity of the code. An attacker can execute malicious code by compromising the host server, performing DNS spoofing, or modifying the code in transit. (CVE-2018-5409)

- The PrinterLogic Print Management software does not sanitize special characters allowing for remote unauthorized changes to configuration files. An unauthenticated attacker may be able to remotely execute arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges. (CVE-2019-9505)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to PrinterLogic software for Windows version 25.0.0.49 or later, or PrinterLogic software for Mac and Linux version 25.1.0.274 or later, and apply the configuration mentioned in the vendor advisory.
