An issue was discovered in the PaperCut Hive Ricoh embedded application. When the "Deep Logging" (diagnostic) mode is enabled, the application inadvertently records administrative credentials in plain text within the log files. An attacker with administrative access to the PaperCut Hive management portal could remotely enable deep logging and subsequently retrieve sensitive device passwords from the logs after an authorized user authenticates at the device. This exposure allows for the lateral movement or unauthorized configuration of the physical print hardware.

No affected version ranges are stored yet. Use the vendor advisory before you decide this record does not apply.
