PaperCut releases second emergency patch for exploited flaws
BLUF
Active exploitation continues despite an initial patch, requiring immediate re-patching.
NEWS
PaperCut released a second emergency security update for vulnerabilities in PaperCut NG and MF software after researchers identified bypass methods for the first fix. These flaws are currently being exploited in the wild, posing a significant risk to print management infrastructure.
Why I Care
Unpatched systems remain vulnerable to active attacks that could lead to unauthorized access, data theft, or ransomware deployment via print servers. Any organization relying on PaperCut NG or MF for document management is at immediate risk.
Next Steps
IT administrators should apply the latest emergency patch immediately upon release. Verify installation success and monitor logs for signs of exploitation attempts before and after patching.
