PaperCut releases second emergency patch for exploited flaws

By Lawrence Abrams

AI Summary

PaperCut issued a second emergency patch for PaperCut NG and MF print management software after researchers discovered multiple bypass methods for the initial fixes addressing two actively exploited vulnerabilities. Attackers are chaining the two flaws to achieve unauthenticated remote code execution by gaining control over PaperCut's trusted configuration and executing arbitrary Java code. Organizations running any version of PaperCut NG or MF should treat patching as urgent given confirmed exploitation and the availability of bypass techniques.
