Device information disclosure via unauthenticated SMS query
Published Feb 6, 2025 · Updated Feb 10, 2025
Information disclosure in Forever KidsWatch KW-50 and KW-60 allows remote attackers to obtain device data through an SMS query. The SMS command parser accepts the built-in pw,123456,ts# parameter query and replies with firmware, ID, IMEI, server address, port, battery, locale, and network status. Possession of the watch's cellular number and the shared default password is sufficient; the disclosure is limited to configuration and status data.
