Internal password disclosure via embedded credentials
Published Jun 14, 2024 · Updated Feb 13, 2025
Hard-coded passwords in Toshiba Tec e-STUDIO multifunction peripherals allow local users to obtain internal authentication secrets. An internal program stores part of the password used to authenticate communication between device-resident programs directly in its code. Exploitation requires access to the multifunction peripheral and exposes the embedded password, with no reported integrity or availability impact.
