[ACSA-2012-04] HP JetDirect Download Manager for Windows suspicious “backdoor” functionality

Jumping ahead, Secunia confirmed that from their point of view the “HP JetDirect Download Manager” is not backdoored/infected. Nevertheless, I’m posting the details for the interested ones.

My suspicions lied within this functionality:

Code:

"Model found in backdoor file!"
"FirmwareFileManager::ReadFirmwareBackDoorFile"
"FirmwareFileManager::ReadBackDoorfile"

Have open my New Year with myself closing Google Hall of Fame October-December 2011 (I guess it was the last entry of 2011, since I submitted during last days of December)

More details about why I ended up there will follow, hopefully at one of the next conference talks.

Stay tuned. Stay secure.
