New Phillips Hue Smart Light Hack Uses Old Chain Reaction Vulnerability

Researchers from Check Point Software have found that an already- known vulnerability with Hue lightbulbs could still be exploited to take control over your home or corporate network. The exploit makes use of the ZigBee low-power wireless protocol. Check Point disclosed the vulnerability to Philips and Signify (which owns the Hue brand) back in November. A patch was made available as an automatic update in mid-January. It’s not clear whether other devices using ZigBee are vulnerable, but it’s probably a good idea to get in the habit of regularly updating any smart home devices to the latest firmware.”]
