Word: smudge attack Part of Speech: noun Etymology: smudge + attack; coined in 2010 by researchers from the University of Pennsylvania’s Department of Computer and Information Science in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA: see the quotation. Pronunciation: /smʌdʒ əˈtæk/ 1. A method used to crack the password of a touchscreen device by analysing the oily smears left on the device's screen by the user's fingers.

This paper explores the feasibility of smudge attacks, where an attacker, by inspection of smudges, attempts to extract sensitive information about recent user input. Example: The OTP [one-time password] mechanism that financial institutions adopted utilizes a one-time password displayed on OTP device, so it is vulnerable to shoulder surfing attacks (SSA) and smudge attacks.
