I recall in the recent past a situation where plugging in a USB flash drive to a computer with Ubuntu installed would cause a wireless printer on the same LAN network to make a beeping sound. The printer in question was not added to the printer with the USB, nor had this computer ever been used to print anything before. I did some Googling to understand how that could happen, and I didn't find much, except for someone claiming that there is a printer daemon that runs in Ubuntu by default and performs various plug and play notifications (I forget the details)? I didn't have time to investigate more, but that experience made me wonder how many vulnerabilities there are silently laying around in a service that notifies printers about what I'm doing on my local laptop.
