Hi everyone,
I was thinking about if a certain penetration test scenario was
applicable. What if there was a target PC (that has no IP) connected to
a printer through a parallel cable, where the printer has an IP and you
had access to this printer through the network. Would you be able to
compromise the connected target PC if you gained control of the printer?
If so how. and if not why?
I tried looking for an answer but to no avail.
Thank you and regards,
Majed Saif
