To naturally curious people, like most of us here, it varies from baffling to infuriating! Some people treat their right to ignorance like a precious thing. If that lays the whole thing open to hackers, that’s the user’s problem, but is it necessarily TP-Link who’ll get the blame? They ought to, but the public have the “evil hackers” idea stuck in their stupid heads, so TP-Link will quite probably be able to shrug their shoulders and get away blameless.Įven if you explained it to a user using metaphors of keys and locks, for many people it falls under “computers” and is something they won’t take an interest in, even if it does make their lives worse down the line. At least this way there’s a fairly foolproof way of tech support knowing the machine’s password.

I suppose when you have millions of customers, and opportunity for a misprinted password label ends up costing money, but even so. They could limit the used character set, to reduce ambiguity. So to add a randomly-generated, really random, and print that out, wouldn’t take any extra steps or hardware, just a tiny tweek.

Thing is, the device requires programming to put it’s MAC address in, and requires a unique label for those details. Posted in Security Hacks, Slider, Wireless Hacks Tagged facepalm, mac address, password, tp-link, unique password, wr702n Post navigation But our devices need to be secure by default. Users should always change default passwords anyway. The obvious next step is to script a scanning routine which took care of with a one-liner: This will be unique for each device, but it is also promiscuously broadcast to any device that cares to listen. They did the next worst thing, which is to assign a password that gets broadcast publicly: the last eight characters of the MAC address.

But that’s where this went off the rails. During the design phase someone had the forethought to make a WiFi AP password that isn’t merely a default. Shown in this image is the WR702N, a nice little router that’s popular in a lot of hacks due to relatively low power, low cost, and small size. They didn’t respond so he went public with the info. The exploit was published on Twitter feed after waiting a couple of weeks to hear back from TP-LINK about the discovery. It’s plain as day but might take a second to dawn on you. We don’t want to ruin the face-palming realization for you, so before clicking past the break look closely at the image above and see if you can spot the exploit. This “security” is so outrageous we had to look for hidden cameras to make sure we’re not being pranked.
