Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in Xerox WorkCentre Pro, which can be exploited by malicious users to gain knowledge of sensitive information.

The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error in the ESS/ Network Controller within the PostScript file interpretation code. This can be exploited via a specially crafted PostScript file containing directory traversal characters to gain unauthorised access to arbitrary files (e.g. the encrypted password file).

The vulnerability has been reported in WorkCentre Pro 32/40 Color (versions 01.00.060 through 01.02.083).
