Kodak Wireless Picture Frames Open To Public

Posted by kdawson on from the look-ma-a-picture-of-a-goat dept.

Jaxoreth writes "The Kodak Easyshare Wireless Digital Picture Frame displays images via a per-frame RSS feed hosted by FrameChannel. Each frame's URL is identical except for a parameter matching its particular MAC address, enabling public browsing of users' feeds. And worse, if you reach the feed of a not-yet-activated frame, it gives you the code to activate it, allowing you to preload it with whatever content you choose."

    Even more interesting, using an id of "'" (an apstrophe) gets you some sort of default channel with some rather nice pictures. They even change them after some time.

    I wonder what's happening behind curtains.

  2. Looks like you can also reset accounts..... by Ernesto+Alvarez · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I was checking some of the links and noticed a few interesting parameters

    See that parameter named reset? I activated an account and verified it as activating. Then I triggered that reset parameter to 1 and it went back to the pre-activation state!
