Apple 12/640 PS LaserWriter TCP/IP Configuration Utility Telnet Server Password Vulnerability

The 12/640 PS LaserWriter is a Postscript capable printer distributed by Apple.

It has been reported that the TCP/IP Configuration Utility for the 12/640 PS does not provide a secure default configuration when used with the device. When the tool is used to configure a printer, the device does not require the setting of a telnet server password. This may allow unauthorized remote access to the device.
