CVE-2023-39143

PaperCut NG and PaperCut MF before 22.1.3 on Windows allow path traversal, enabling attackers to upload, read, or delete arbitrary files. This leads to remote code execution when external device integration is enabled (a very common configuration).

Summary		(es) PaperCut NG y PaperCut MF antes de 22.1.3 en Windows permiten atravesar rutas, lo que permite a los atacantes cargar, leer o eliminar archivos arbitrarios. Esto conduce a la ejecución remota de código cuando la integración de dispositivos externos está habilitada (una configuración muy común).
