LockPickingLawyer, a recreational lock picker, was sent a fingerprint padlock for review. He emailed the manufacture to let them know that he’d discovered a security vulnerability: “Upon examining the lock, I found that if you remove the three screws, the lock falls apart. The shackle can be opened and relocked without the owner’s fingerprint or knowledge.”

The manufacturer replied: “the lock is invincible to the people who do not have a screwdriver.”

Thank goodness a set of torx drivers costs $4, or this might be a concern for anyone using this lock
