Find out the uptime of your Samsung SmartTV

Lately I've been playing around with some stuff, among which I've decided to see what's around me in my home network. Today I've stopped by my TV, which is a Samsung 6500 Series from 2013 (45" model). Turns out that it has some open ports...

PORT     STATE SERVICE
80/tcp   open  http
443/tcp  open  https
4443/tcp open  pharos
6000/tcp open  X11
7676/tcp open  imqbrokerd

Now, I've only had time to check out port 80... and this is how I've found out the uptime of my TV.

curl -I http://TvIP/

HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 345
Date: Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:31:52 GMT
Server: Swift1.0

Turns out that the date is set to 0 (Unix timestamp ftw) every time the TV starts and the server starts with that and tadam.. this is how you get your TV uptime :)

In the weekend I plan to dedicate some time to my car, this should be fun :D
