Security Evaluation

1. Device Security

Criterion Value Proof Comment
Known hardware tampering Rare πŸ”— Proof Bambu states JTAG, serial and USB debug ports are disabled at factory and boot stages are encrypted and signed. Physical teardown remains possible, so not None.
Known vulnerabilities Rare [1] πŸ”— Proof The vendor incident summary lists fixed boot-chain, command-validation and 3MF path-traversal issues. CVE-2025-57521 affects Bambu Studio on the PC, not printer firmware. Public printer-specific CVE count is low.
Prior attacks Rare πŸ”— Proof Documented abnormal cloud requests, attempts to control already-bound printers and DDoS against MakerWorld. No mass botnet or widespread device compromise reported.
Updatability Very common πŸ”— Proof OTA updates are signed and encrypted and the vendor has shipped security fixes repeatedly from 2022 to 2025.
Category Score Score: 2 / 3

2. System Security

Criterion Value Proof Comment
Authentication with other systems Full πŸ”— Proof Device binding uses a unique 128-bit device ID and password; cloud and MQTTS connections require authentication.
Communications Encrypted with up-to-date encryption πŸ”— Proof TLS for cloud and LAN MQTT broker, FTPS for file transfer and WPA2 for Wi-Fi.
Storage Encrypted with obselete encryption πŸ”— Proof Exported diagnostic logs are AES-encrypted, but local print files on SD or USB are not documented as encrypted. Partial storage protection only.
Category Score Score: 2 / 3

3. User Authentication

Criterion Value Proof Comment
Account management Basic πŸ”— Proof Bambu account with device binding and sharing; no documented role hierarchy or least-privilege sub-accounts.
Authentication Basic πŸ”— Proof Account password plus device binding. Mandatory 2FA is not documented for all regions.
Brute-force protection Basic πŸ”— Proof Vendor monitors abnormal login and request rates, but no published per-account failed-login threshold.
Event logging Partial logging πŸ”— Proof Diagnostic logs and print history exist; no documented administrator-access audit log.
Passwords Require change after setup πŸ”— Proof No factory default account password; user sets the Bambu account password at signup. Complexity enforcement is not publicly specified.
Category Score Score: 2 / 3
