Detailed Description The HP Web JetAdmin server is vulnerable to multiple vulnerabilities.
HP JetAdmin software manages HP JetDirect-connected printers using a Web browser. JetAdmin version 7.x versions could allow a remote authenticated attacker to perform various actions as the followings:

1. The '/plugins/hpjdwm/script/test/setinfo.hts' script allows a remote attacker to traverse directories on the affected system.
2. The '/plugins/hpjwja/script/devices_update_printer_fw_upload.hts' script allows a remote attacker to upload an arbitrary file to the /plugins/hpjwja/firmware/printer/ directory.
3. The '/plugins/framework/script/tree.xms' script allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the affected system.

* Platforms Affected:
Hewlett-Packard JetAdmin 7.x
Microsoft Windows Any version
Recommendation No upgrade or patch available as of March 2004.

Workarounds:
To set a password for the HP Web Jet Admin service follow these steps:
1. In the Web browser menu select General Settings, and expand the tree.
2. Expand Profiles Administration
3. Select Add/Remove Profiles
4. In the User Profiles page, if a password has not been set, select the 'Note: To enable security features, an Admin password must be set.' link.
5. Set an administrator password.

It is strongly recommended that access be restricted by IP Addresses:
1. Expand the General Settings tree.
2. Select the HTTP (Web) branch.
3. Under the 'Allow HP Web Jetadmin Access' add your administration IP host or range. HP Also recommends removing all files that are included in the test directory. On a default installation this would be in the directory C:\Program Files\HP Web Jetadmin\doc\plugins\hpjdwm\script\
