- Severity: CVSS 3.8 (Low), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:4.0/AV:P/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:L/VA:N/SC:H/SI:L/SA:N/E:U
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial

## Affected

- PaperCut PaperCut Hive: from 2.0.0, fixed in 2.3.0

## Description

An input validation vulnerability exists in the PaperCut Hive embedded application for Ricoh devices. The application fails to properly sanitize input received during the NFC card reading process before passing it to the application's web view interface. A local attacker with physical access to the device and a specially crafted NFC card or emulator could exploit this flaw to execute arbitrary code within the context of the application's user interface. This could result in unauthorized actions or information disclosure.
