Hackers sent ransom note to printers

Report published by Secureworks Inc.

The Cobalt Mirage hacking group of Iran are using the Log4j security vulnerability that exists in many network endpoints devices (including some printers and MFPs)
After installing their ransomware to take over network, they apparently then force a printer (or MFP) to print out the letter demanding the ransom to be paid, so that victim can get password to take back control of network.
