Security Evaluation

1. Device Security

Criterion Value Proof Comment
Known hardware tampering Rare [jvndb.jvn.jp/ja/contents/2023/JVNDB-2023-025505.html πŸ”— Proof] No mass physical-tampering campaign documented.
Known vulnerabilities Very common [jvndb.jvn.jp/ja/contents/2023/JVNDB-2023-025505.html πŸ”— Proof] CVE-2023-46892 (CVSS 8.8): authentication bypass via capture-replay on MSH30Q firmware 4.5.23, allowing information disclosure, tampering and denial of service. Related Meross MSS110 issues include an unauthenticated admin.htm interface and a hidden telnet service with a blank admin password.
Prior attacks Rare [jvndb.jvn.jp/ja/contents/2023/JVNDB-2023-025505.html πŸ”— Proof] No known mass exploitation campaign reported.

Category Score Score: 2 / 3

2. System Security

Criterion Value Proof Comment
Authentication with other systems Partial [www.meross.com/ πŸ”— Proof] Cloud account plus Alexa/Google/HomeKit integrations.
Communications Encrypted with obselete encryption [jvndb.jvn.jp/ja/contents/2023/JVNDB-2023-025505.html πŸ”— Proof] Cloud traffic uses TLS but the capture-replay bypass weakens effective transport trust.

Authentication Basic [jvndb.jvn.jp/ja/contents/2023/JVNDB-2023-025505.html πŸ”— Proof] Authentication can be bypassed by replaying captured requests (CVE-2023-46892).
Brute-force protection Basic [www.meross.com/ πŸ”— Proof] No documented lockout policy.
Event logging Partial logging [www.meross.com/ πŸ”— Proof] On/off history in app; authentication events not exposed as an audit trail.
