CVE-2017-7588
On certain Brother devices, authorization is mishandled by including a valid AuthCookie cookie in the HTTP response to a failed login attempt. Affected models are: MFC-J6973CDW MFC-J4420DW MFC-8710DW MFC-J4620DW MFC-L8850CDW MFC-J3720 MFC-J6520DW MFC-L2740DW MFC-J5910DW MFC-J6920DW MFC-L2700DW MFC-9130CW MFC-9330CDW MFC-9340CDW MFC-J5620DW MFC-J6720DW MFC-L8600CDW MFC-L9550CDW MFC-L2720DW DCP-L2540DW DCP-L2520DW HL-3140CW HL-3170CDW HL-3180CDW HL-L8350CDW HL-L2380DW ADS-2500W ADS-1000W ADS-1500W.
CVSS
- Base score
- 9.8
- Version
- 3.0
- Vector
- CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
- 34 %
- Percentile among all scored CVEs
- 98
- Score date
- 10/22/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
Public exploits
Exploit code or detection templates are publicly available. This is not the same as confirmed active exploitation (KEV), but it raises the risk: patch with priority.
