Discussion

HP JetDirect Invalid FTP Command DoS Vulnerability

HP JetDirect firmware is vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack. JetDirect devices have an FTP service which fails to properly handle bad FTP commands sent with the ftp "quote" command. This causes the device to stop responding and possibly display an error message. Powering the device off and on is required to regain normal functionality.
