Security Evaluation

1. Device Security

Criterion Value Proof Comment
Known hardware tampering Very common 🔗 Proof McAfee found an enabled JTAG interface, dumped the full flash and debugged the system without restriction.
Known vulnerabilities Very common [1] 🔗 Proof The RF state sensor uses unencrypted OOK and FHSS and can be selectively jammed and captured. Local port 80 and UDP communication were also exposed.
Prior attacks Rare 🔗 Proof Demonstrated by McAfee and Trellix Advanced Threat Research, but no public mass exploitation.
Updatability Rare 🔗 Proof Chamberlain can push firmware and fixed earlier Veracode-reported issues, but G0301 is a legacy 2017 model, so update frequency is now limited.
Category Score Score: 3 / 3

2. System Security

Criterion Value Proof Comment
Authentication with other systems Partial 🔗 Proof Cloud account and API authentication exist, but the local API and RF sensor path lack strong mutual authentication.
Communications No encryption [2] 🔗 Proof The door-state sensor transmits over unencrypted RF, and local HTTP and UDP traffic are also plaintext.
Storage Encrypted with obselete encryption 🔗 Proof Flash was dumped via JTAG and no strong at-rest encryption is documented.
Category Score Score: 3 / 3

3. User Authentication

Criterion Value Proof Comment
Account management Basic 🔗 Proof Single MyQ account per home. Guest access exists, but no fine-grained roles are documented.
Authentication Basic 🔗 Proof Email and password account plus device pairing. Mandatory 2FA is not documented.
Brute-force protection Basic 🔗 Proof Standard account controls, but no published failed-login lockout for the hub.
Event logging Partial logging 🔗 Proof The app records open and close events and notifications, but no administrator-access audit log.
Passwords Require change after setup 🔗 Proof No factory default MyQ account password; the user sets it at signup.
Category Score Score: 2 / 3
