Hi James, Make sure nobody is running ISS scans on your LAN. They are known to throw printers and printservers out of whack. -Bojan James Edwards <jedwards () mail sdsu edu> on 07/19/2001 01:07:09 PM To: sdsu-cert () lists sdsu edu cc: incidents () securityfocus com (bcc: Bojan Zdravkovic/SIAC) Subject: Jetdirect card Attack??? Yesterday, one of the printers here in ITS began printing a Jetdirect Diagnostic Page showing a S/W Exception 00fb and a core dump ("Registers", "Stack", and "Register Pointer Memory Dump" in Hex). I changed the slot, and the error followed (from EIO1 to EIO2), therefore I guessed that the card was bad. Today another printer began to share the same symptoms. I have a hard time believing that two cards would go bad at the same time Has anyone else noted this phenomenon?? Could it be a different type of printer attack than the port 515 attacks??
