Smart Weighing Machine Hacking
For researchers, by researchers
Smart device authentication is super convenient for us, but unfortunately, it's just as easy for attackers to bypass.
What is it about?
Get hands-on experience exploiting a smart weighing machine with our dear friend Eugene Lim and learn basic hardware hacking techniques like:
- Firmware Extraction
- Bluetooth Low Energy / WiFi Sniffing and Interception
- Serial Port Debugging
Machines Involved
We'll be working with these 3 smart weighing machine models:
- Withings Body (WBS06)
- Anker Eufy Smart Scale P2 Pro
- Huawei Scale 3
