LG电子宣布将在其webOS应用商店中禁止使用住宅代理SDK1。这一举措旨在阻止开发者将用户的电视设备转变为代理节点,允许第三方通过这些设备路由互联网流量1。
安全公司Spur的研究发现,LG智能电视应用商店中超过42%的应用包含住宅代理SDKs1。相比之下,Samsung Tizen操作系统应用中也有超过四分之一存在类似代理组件1。
LG高管John Taylor表示,"住宅代理网络不是LG智能电视的预期用途"1。公司承诺与开发者合作移除这些代理功能,拒不配合的应用将被暂停1。
在提供代理服务的供应商中,Bright Data是LG和Samsung智能电视中占比最大的1。Spur的研究报告于7月2日发布1。
LG Electronics announced plans to prohibit residential proxy software development kits from its webOS app store for smart televisions 1. The decision follows research by security firm Spur, which revealed that more than 42% of applications available in LG's smart TV app store contained SDKs enabling users' devices to function as proxy nodes, allowing third parties to route internet traffic through consumer equipment 1.
LG stated it will work with developers to remove these proxy functionalities, with non-compliant applications facing suspension from the platform 1. According to LG executive John Taylor, "A residential proxy network is not an intended use for LG smart TVs" 1.
The issue extends beyond LG's ecosystem. Samsung's Tizen operating system similarly hosts applications containing proxy components, affecting more than one quarter of its app offerings 1. Bright Data has emerged as the largest proxy network supplier integrated into both LG and Samsung smart TV applications 1.
Spur's research findings were published on July 2 1.
