This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Canon imageCLASS MF743Cdw printers.

Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.

The specific flaw exists within the Authorization header provided to the /mls/rls-login/basic endpoint.
