What to check
- Applies to
- The 4 CVEs named below. Whether you run an affected version is not assessed: check the versions the source lists.
- Exploitation
- No exploitation in the wild and no public exploit is recorded for the CVEs named.
CERT-FR published an advisory covering multiple vulnerabilities in PaperCut print management software, affecting PaperCut Hive Embedded Application versions prior to 2.3.0 (Ricoh), and PaperCut NG/MF versions 25.x before 25.0.13 and 26.x before 26.0.5. The vulnerabilities allow an attacker to achieve remote arbitrary code execution, breach data confidentiality, bypass security policies, and conduct indirect remote code injection (XSS).
Four CVEs are referenced (CVE-2026-11744, CVE-2026-14780, CVE-2026-82077, CVE-2026-87739) tied to the vendor's September 2026 security bulletin, though the advisory does not provide per-CVE technical descriptions. No evidence of active exploitation in the wild is mentioned in the bulletin. Defenders running affected PaperCut deployments, including Ricoh-embedded Hive instances, should apply vendor patches referenced in the official PaperCut security bulletin without delay, given PaperCut's history of being targeted by ransomware actors following prior vulnerability disclosures.
Organizations should prioritize patching print management infrastructure, verify version levels against the fixed releases listed, and monitor for anomalous authentication or code execution activity on PaperCut servers as a precaution.

What this brief leaves out
This page is the free tier: the write-up, the severity, the names. In the app the same report carries live profiles of the CVEs it names. The paid plans add the security research and news reporting the free tier leaves out.
It sits in a corpus of 16,572 reports from 147 sources, 724 of them written in the last seven days, and it grows through the day.
A new account starts with three days of all of it, no card, then keeps the government and CERT reporting free. Slack alerts are a paid-plan feature: name the vendors you run and Slack hears about the reports that touch them, not the rest of the week's. Nothing is charged unless you subscribe.
