Buffer Overflows

PJL

Various Lexmark laser printers crash when when receiving about 1.000 characters as the INQUIRE argument see [CVE-2010-0619](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-0619) and sending about 3.000 characters as the SET argument to the Dell 1720n crashes the device:

@PJL INQUIRE 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000…

You can check for Buffer Overflows using PRET:

./pret.py -q printer pjl
Connection to printer established

LPD daemon

It allows multiple user-defined vectors like jobname, username or hostname, which may not be sufficiently protected. Several vulnerabilities related to this malfunction has been already discovered.

A simple LPD fuzzer to test for buffer overflows can be created using the lpdtest tool included in PRET. The in argument sets all user inputs defined by the LPD protocol to a certain value in this case, Python output:

./lpdtest.py printer in "`python -c 'print "x"*150'`"
