Check Point recently discovered a vulnerability in LG's smart home infrastructure, which was named HomeHack, exposing it to critical user account takeover. If this vulnerability were to be exploited, an attacker would have been able to log into LG users' accounts, select the devices connected to this account, and then remotely take control over them. HomeHack could allowed cyber attackers to stop your refrigerator from working, turn on your oven, access the video camera on your robotic vacuum cleaner, or even turn your kitchen into a paddling pool by flooding your dishwasher.
