Nearly 200,000 WiFi Cameras Open to Hacking Right Now

Security researcher Pierre Kim found seven security flaws in a random wireless IP camera. The flaws affect a generic product called Wireless IP Camera (P2P) WIFICAM, manufactured by a (currently unnamed) Chinese company, who sells it as a white-label product to several other camera vendors. In total, nearly 1,250 camera models based on the original camera are affected. Kim says the flaws have all made their way down the line into the products of other companies that bought the camera. At least 1,000,000 devices (not just cameras) seem to rely on these flaws.
