Ray-Ban Meta app leaked eight API keys in plain text
Original: An open-source Ray-Ban Meta glasses app kept eight API keys in plain text until October 4
An open-source app built for Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses stored eight API keys in plain text, exposing them until the issue was addressed on October 4. The finding raises concerns about credential handling in community-developed wearable software, since exposed keys can allow unauthorized access to third-party services and user-linked accounts connected through the glasses.
Why now: Security flaws in popular smart glasses software attract attention because exposed API keys pose concrete risks to users and the wider open-source community.
