Lexmark printers with firmware ATL before ATL.021.063, CB before CB.021.063, PP before PP.021.063, and YK before YK.021.063 mishandle Erase Printer Memory and Erase Hard Disk actions, which allows physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information via direct read operations on non-volatile memory.
