Masterlock should be ashamed putting this absolute garbage out at a level 8 security rating. People actually trust those ratings and they are being fooled by a company that clearly has zero concern with quality assurance. I hope they watch this, and do some SERIOUS reevaluation of their entire approach to the industry of "securing" valuables.

I really like the bit at the end where you discuss where it might and might not be suitable-something I find missing from a lot of "this sucks" reviews on KZread. In particular, any discussion of security is meaningless without a discussion of the threat model. Is your adversary a 12-year-old who wants to steal your $2 of lunch money? A curious neighbor? A bike thief? A meth'd out smash-and-grabber? A corrupt TSA agent? A skilled professional burglar? A government intelligence agency? A missile strike? A nuclear blast? In my opinion, a proper discussion of a security device indicates the types of threats it can and can't stop and how it compares to other devices that are similar either in price or protection profile. I think this review ticks those boxes. Kudos.

Don't give masterlock too much credit for "water resistant." Simple circuits which are so low voltage, water isn't a good enough conductor to really bugger much up. Most electronics, as they come, are actually surprisingly water "resistant." Looking at the bubbles which came out every time you dunked it, it was clear the lock had really no resistance to water ingress, decorative rubberized cover or no.

@TechLeftBehind

To Master's credit, there is a conformal coating on the PCB. That would provide quite a bit of water resistance. But no, the casing is nowhere near water resistant, and the water is liable to do some damage to the cheap little motor powering the unlock mechanism.

Fire kills this lock though. I picked one up and ran a test of my own.

that response to the hammer was sad.

I wonder if it's susceptible to powerline attacks. Brownout for example. If you drain the battery somehow and then use that port on the bottom to supply power, you can reduce the voltage so that the microchip can't function properly, and if you get lucky, code that runs the motor could be run. I've done this with a few simple electronic items before. By lowing the powering voltage you can get all sorts of crazy shit to happen. The most interesting things are when the device starts running code that shouldn't be able to be accessed.

@MatthewVaras

5 жыл бұрын

It's almost certainly got undervoltage lockout circuitry in place, as most all power supply IC's include it as standard. This disables power to the system in the event of power dropping below a threshold. It's very important for secondary lithium cells, but I'm not as sure for primary.

It would be very interesting to measure the voltage at those "battery dead" contacts. You could do a power analysis on it to see any peculiarities for good combinations vs bad combinations. You might be able to guess the combo like that if they have not enough bypass capacitors, or if they have bad coding practices.

You would have to sniff on that secondary side to even have the slightest chance to catch some meaningful data!

The silver lock that you picked while the Masterlock was under water is the real MVP in this video

I have never picked a lock. I like watching videos about locks, though, and greatly enjoy your channel. My skills lie in software and computers. So when I see a lock like these, my first thought is that even if the locking mechanism is rock solid, I would bet money that the software is junk. Companies do not take software seriously. They do not approach it like any other kind of engineering, and since software is far more complex than almost any other kind of engineering, that results in absolutely terrible systems that are full of holes. I would love to see someone run WireShark and sniff the Bluetooth traffic (pretty sure WireShark supports that) and then try fuzzing the thing over Bluetooth. There is actually an online "game" for programmers/hackers called Microcorruption that is based on the idea of exactly locks like this, and you specially craft inputs to screw up the software and either dump out the key or just unlock the lock directly. If the locks weren't so expensive I'd probably pick one up just to play with and see how hard it would be to get into. Would be very interesting to see what signal, for instance, gets sent over bluetooth to the lock to tell it to disable locker mode. Since you don't have to disable that with the lock itself it appears, it is still actually listening to bluetooth, just not sending out an 'open request' when someone pushes its buttons. Wouldn't surprise me if you could make a universal 'disable locker mode' app. Or an app that just tries all possible keys. Hopefully it uses something better than a 16k keyspace on the bluetooth end of things...

It's a pity. If they took this lock mechanism, which seems pretty solid by itself, and put it in a traditional Masterlock casing, it wouldn't be a half bad lock. The battery compartment wouldn't need to be in the secure portion of the casing, you could just run wires through where the keyhole would normally be, with the battery in a user openable compartment for easy access without becoming a weak spot. Just needs to be secure enough to stop some prankster from easily stealing the battery and giving you a bit of annoyance. One bypass for this sort of lock is if you could get a bit of wire in there and short the locking servo directly to the battery, but with plastic coated contacts for water resistance, and the fact that you'd be doing this through the tiny hole the wires for the battery go through, around a couple corners (no direct path between the hole and the part of the circuit board with the servo!), I think this would be near impossible to actually pull off. The button pad is also a vulnerability since drilling through it gives you direct access to the circuitry and the inside of the lock. But you could put it on its own miniature board on the outside of the secure portion and wire it into the inside through a little hole just like the battery. Then an attack on the buttons will just render the lock inoperable except by Bluetooth. But if you're going to be pulling out power tools like a drill anyway, it's questionable if this vulnerability is actually any faster than just cutting the chain or shank with a grinder. Properly made, a smart lock will offer just as much physical security as any good lock. Even a possibility vulnerability to a cyberattack, which is fairly easy for a half competent security programmer to prevent due to tiny surface area of the software, is fairly hard for a casual thief to exploit since it would be very dependant on the specific lock in question. On the other hand, if someone were to do a cyberattack, they could do it from their laptop while sitting on the bench ten feet away, thus performing the attack in public with no one being the wiser. But computer security is a well researched field, and provided you follow industry best practices, quite hard to crack, especially without the normal vulnerabilies of central servers with login information for everyone and weak passworks that can be brute forced with access to a user database breach. The lock's password is on a little piece of paper that comes with the lock, in the lock's memory, and on your phone, and that's it. And being a string of 15 or so random letters and digits, is not easy to crack.

Seems a bit pointless - I'd never remove it from "locker mode" for fear of getting within bluetooth range during the day, thus I'd always be entering the code, meaning it's now just a normal digital lock with bluetooth that's not being used.

Vulnerabilities aside, that's an awesome smart lock. I may grab one of these for my union steward locker. Just using a $2 masterlock combo lock because the boss isn't likely to bypass it, but it'd be nice to make it a bit tougher given the sensitivity of my notes.

I like your videos not because of your lock picking skills but your knowledge on all variety of locks and how to get pass them (realistically), just makes me think twice about buying these locks. Thank you

Awesome Video Bill. Long Time Since I've been on here I know but Keep up the great work and hopefully I'll be watching a bunch more. Nick

@bosnianbill how hard is the plastic sleeve that goes around the lock because when you hit it with a hammer the sleeve wasn't on and it could have possibly added some strength to the lock

I might point out that this lock isn't even sort of tough under fire, it was melted in about a minute by crazy russian hacker and a blowtorch.

"Lemme put this fire out." So nonchalant.

love your videos, very educational and entertaining.

Knowing Masterlock, I'm surprised the arrow code isn't the Konami Code! Edit: HOLY COW! That is a good lock. From Master Lock!

If that is a 8, what is a 1?

Hey bill I have been a fan of your work for about 3 years, all the videos you make are educational, and are very fun to watch. I have been thinking about making a club at the college I'm attending now where I intend to show a lot of your videos and mainly help my community become a safer place. I was wondering if you have any inputs on how I could help people who have never done lock picking and if it is possible to help a lot of us understand more about the mechanics of a tumbler lock. I haven't spoken to the college yet about what I am planning on doing but I do want to have events like chaining up a bunch of locks and having two people compete in a race to see who can unlock the locks faster. And for more experienced lock pickers have them put the locks on the other persons chain. And who ever has fewer lock by the end of the time limit will gets prizes. I also hope it will be okay to use your videos. Thank you for the education and we will definitely stay safe and stay legal! 😄

Rather than re-invent the wheel, I'd recommend you contact Toool (see the Forum link: lock-lab.com/resources/forums-and-organizations/) to get their help. This is what they do. They have resources, training materials, and can help you get organized.

I like your channel and your thoughts on lock bypassing. You seem to think of it as a serious hobby. Even to the point of wanting to form a club of sorts around it. It is nice seeing someone with so much drive, and love for their subject of interest. I hope the best for you and your hobby. I'm only mildly interested in the subject. I still find your videos fascinating and entertaining though. You are a great voice for the subject.

@bosnianbill Hello! I'm curious enough about lock picking to have surfed down to your channel and couldn't help but think that this lock might be defeated with a really good neodymium magnet. Could you tell me if the wedge that holds the rollers in place sticks to a magnet?

Is that a Trioving you're fiddling with to spend time? if so, saves me from sending you my little spawn of satan. very, very curious to see how you open it!

I have to say, I had the indoor design of this. Classmates gave the battery compartment a good tug and it comes out.

99.8% of all locks can be defeated with proper tool if you aren't trying to Save the lock. Bad thing of these is the twist pins that hold it together. We Spot TIGed ours and that then required a Sledge to take apart. As locks are to basically keep the drunks out of the wrong house or gate, I got one due to our freezing rain and snow weather. Tired of heating locks and keys. It is so nice to pull up in the car. Go out and hit the button. Also we can assign temporary codes to someone, they only work for a 6 hour time span on a certain day. Deleting emails when someone leaves the company, etc. It is a good Lock for a Commercial Gate that has odd hour access for some people. Oh, did I mention in the app you can limit access to certain people for certain time frames? Plus a History log off who opened and when it was locked! A 4" battery operated cutting disc will disable most "locks" sometimes taking a finger with them. After many many months of use ours have had the inner Tree shaped blocker break its trunk off. Now if the Hasp gets turned 180 degrees one cannot swing it back. Have to unlock it to swing it back around and then works ok. If one is careful with the hasp movement it is a non-issue. Yes, when the lock hasp is removed the lock is "open".

Could you add the name & artist of the song in the description? A few of us are very curious.

would a magnet open this lock? i know alot of the electronic safes can be opened with a magnet because it activates the actuator.

I love you man, how you picked a lock in that time :D that was my sub to you from germany

How to get in this thing quietly use a triangle file dead center between the shackle, use a flathead to depress the locking arm it's quiet, and should take less than 30 minutes

water itself isn't very conducive. add a ton of salt for electrolytic epixness.

Very well made video! Most videos of this length seem to run out if material half way through

Would a regular nail in the top center of the lock push down the actuator to unlock the lock or a heavy duty shim?

3 licks with a common hammer. What a piece of garbage!

@@DarthErdmaennchen23 The bluetooth itself may be easy to hack, but that may still not get you in, I'd be surprised if there isn't some encryption or hash between the lock and the bluetooth device.. You need to get it activated, which probably means your phone is sent some kind of hash, which the lock checks, and with today's processing power, it could easily be 128 bit

Good review Bill! My thoughts; The hasp is locked by the two cylinders, which in turn are held apart by the arrow shaped blocking piece. When the hasp/lock body is hit, the two cylinders will impart a force against the spring holding the blocking piece in the locked position due to it being angled....and the lock yields.. If the arrow had a stepped flat shoulder holding the cylinders in instead of an angle form there would be no imparted force against the spring. The angle of the blocking piece is it's Achilles Heel! Given that the lock body does not yield.

The beat at 9:30 made my day

It's a Master lock, so I'm not surprised it's easy to break open. And bluetooth? No thanks.

Yeah, what are the odds that their software engineers are any better at security than the rest of the company? The one thing I will say is that at least good software quality doesn't increase the *marginal* cost of the lock. But I'd be pretty surprised to learn that they didn't still cut corners.

Justin DiPlacido No, it's very likely that there is a way in through the software. Software security is really difficult. But I definitely agree that it's not worth cracking the software when you can just hit it.
