Impact
The vulnerability causes Sharp and Toshiba Tec multifunction printers to retain cached data after printing sessions. Because the caches are not cleared, subsequent users on the same device can read these files, potentially exposing confidential documents. This behavior aligns with CWE-459, indicating insecure removal of data from internal storage.
Affected Systems
Sharp Corporation Sharp MFPs and Toshiba Tec Corporation Toshiba Tec MFPs are affected. No specific model or firmware version details are provided in the advisory, so the issue may apply broadly across current device lines.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 2.4 indicates a low severity risk and the EPSS score is unavailable, suggesting limited exploitation likelihood. As the flaw requires physical or local network access to the device, only users with direct access can exploit it. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
