Firmware disclosure via unauthenticated update server
Published Oct 11, 2024 · Updated Jul 5, 2026
Incorrect access control in Starvedia com.wisdomcity.zwave 1.1.0 allows remote attackers to download firmware without authentication. The app embeds a firmware metadata URL, and the vendor server returns model, version, configuration, and direct firmware URLs to an unauthenticated GET request. Network access to the update server is sufficient to retrieve unreleased firmware for offline analysis, while no device compromise or update installation is demonstrated.
