Paris-based Open Tools is developing an open-source inkjet printer that uses standard mechanical components and refillable ink cartridges, controlled by a Raspberry Pi Zero W. It can print on both sheets and rolls of paper, automatically cutting the latter to size, and aims to provide a repairable, upgradeable alternative to traditional printers.
Under certain conditions, attackers can chain vulnerabilities in multiple components of the CUPS printing system to execute arbitrary code remotely on Linux machines, but the service is usually not enabled by default, mitigating the risk.
