Thread regarding Xerox Corp. layoffs

This is why XRX is doomed.

https://www.securityweek.com/xerox-versalink-printer-vulnerabilities-enable-lateral-movement/

A critical security flaw in the Versalink allowed lateral movement in an org, and access to Active Directory.

This is how seriously XRX handled it:
"The two issues were reported to Xerox in March 2024. Fixes for them were rolled out at the end of January 2025, in the form of service pack updates for the VersaLink C7020, 7025, and 7030 series multifunction printers. "

XRX had a dangerous, active exploit on the Versalink and didn't patch it for 10 MONTHS?

Who the fu-k would trust XRX in their data center, or any mission-critical ops, if they can't patch a server in under 10 months?

If it is an FX machine, and it's got FX only software on it, xerox can't fix it and with how we left things with Fuji, they may have told us to go pound sand

I can only imagine the process or non-process Xerox has to fix such things. Maybe it’s like when your laptop breaks ant Xerox and it takes a month and a half and 92 Indians from service now that talk in circles and start over every day. Probably the same guys working on the patch.

This is Mission critical! We can’t do our job! This is a major risk!

OK sir. We will check on the issue.

New guy in the morning starts over. Is this still an issue?

Why yes, yes, it is. There has been no movement.

OK, I will get back to you

Next day, new Indian. Good day, sir. Is this still an issue?

Xerox in a nutshell.

"I maybe wrong on this, but isn't the versalink a direct from Fuji xerox product?"

I'm not sure and it doesn't matter. It's a SW fix, that is on XRX to handle under 10 months, it has your name on it.

Blame Lean Six Sigma. I knew of tech powerhouse developers that ate up that stinking rotten garbage; not surprised it took that long to fix. Bunch of tárds.
