(BTW, on XP, some Lexmark printers don't have to have this Service running, and some do. So on some, this Service can be disabled, it's founder under XP's "Services". Like all Services, it can be double-clicked and its properties changed). -Clint
TITLE: Lexmark Printers LexBce Server Arbitrary Code Execution SECUNIA ADVISORY ID: SA18744 VERIFY ADVISORY: http://secunia.com/advisories/18744/ CRITICAL: Moderately critical IMPACT: System access WHERE: >From local network OPERATING SYSTEM: Lexmark X1100 Series http://secunia.com/product/7842/ SOFTWARE: Lexmark LexBce Server (LexPPS) 8.x http://secunia.com/product/7856/ Lexmark LexBce Server (LexPPS) 9.x http://secunia.com/product/7847/ DESCRIPTION: A vulnerability in the LexBce Server Service included with various Lexmark printers, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. The vulnerability is caused due to an unspecified error in the printer sharing service provided by the LexBce Server Service (LexPPS.EXE). This can be exploited to execute arbitrary code on a system with Lexmark printer installed. NOTE: The service is installed with the printer drivers of Lexmark X1100 series (LexPPS version 8.29), and X2200 series (LexPPS version 9.41). Other Lexmark printers may also have the service installed. SOLUTION: Disable the service if printer sharing is not required. ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
