Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2011-4787 affects an ActiveX control in HP Easy Printer Care Software 2.5 and earlier. A remote attacker could cause a client machine to download and run an arbitrary program. The public bundle does not provide CVSS, CWE, exploitation evidence, or confirmed fixes. Exposure is likely limited to endpoints with HP Easy Printer Care Software 2.5 or earlier and the vulnerable ActiveX control present. Modern environments may have low exposure if the legacy software and ActiveX-capable browser paths are absent. Treat this as a targeted legacy endpoint risk. Prioritize discovery first, then remove or remediate any remaining installations. Urgency is lower without KEV evidence, but impact could be serious on exposed clients. Mitigation focus: Inventory endpoints for HP Easy Printer Care Software 2.5 or earlier.; Check HP advisory HPSBPI02698 for vendor remediation guidance.; Remove the legacy software where it is no longer required..
