Zhongguancun online news: CCTV 315 disclosed the issue of APP security permissions for terminals such as children's smart watches. Although the permission management of Android mobile phones has become perfect at present, the APP on the smart watch side has become more intense, and it can obtain photos, videos and location information in the child's smart watch at any time, threatening the child's personal safety.
By inducing the scanning code and other methods, the malicious APP can remotely obtain the information in the watch, and the other party can continuously obtain the location information, infer the child's home address, the child's school, and record the child's home conversation at any time through the built-in recording function. This situation is mainly due to the fact that the Android system of the children's smartwatch is too old (Android 4.4), and the program will unconditionally allow the APP to obtain permissions without user authorization.
When purchasing a similar children's smart watch, users must pay attention to whether the pre-installed operating system is new enough, and whether the APP has applied for unnecessary application permissions from the user, so as not to bring risks to children.
