Rapid7 disclosed eight vulnerabilities across hundreds of printers, scanners, and label-makers (primarily Brother models), including a critical CVE-2024-51978 that enables generation of a device's default administrator password (CVSS 9.8) and cannot be fully remediated via firmware. Several flaws can be chained to achieve unauthenticated remote code execution or credential disclosure; Rapid7 and vendors released firmware for seven issues and advise changing default admin passwords and applying updates where available.
