Exploit in smart devices: A case study

With the rapid development of Internet of Things (IoT) and smart devices, an increasing number of home security devices are produced and deployed in our daily life. To improve the awareness of the security flaws of these household smart devices, we perform a demo attack in this paper, which utilizes the vulnerability of a security camera to do the exploit. We set up the malicious Wi-Fi environment and our assuming victim in the experiment uses Samsung GALAXY Note 10.1. We demonstrate how to steal the victim’s credential log in information after tricking him into connecting to the malicious Wi-Fi. Our experiment shows that those smart devices lack high-standard security. In our experiment, we show it is trivial and cheap to steal the users credential using a malicious Wi-Fi.
