CVE-2026-86553 PUBLISHED

A password reset vulnerability in ZTE SmartLife APP

Assigner: zte
Reserved: 08.09.2026 Published: 20.09.2026 Updated: 20.09.2026

SmartLife app dynamically generates fresh SmartLife application authentication parameters inside its runtime process. Using the acquired SmartLife application authentication parameters, an attacker can directly call the backend interface /account/verify.serv to obtain the real account ID corresponding to a registered email address. By spoofing the application authentication information together with the target account ID, the attacker can reset the password of the target account.
