*** Small PSA about HP printer vulnerability ***

Major security flaw in HP printers (all of them basically, so assume this impacts you if you own one) which allows hackers and bots to get into your network through your printer. A FIX HAS BEEN DONE, SO UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE using your printer software

Make sure any hardware you have is configured to update automatically, or to alert you when updates are available. No software is perfect forever, so its good to keep up to date as people find things!!
