WikiLeaks released more than 8,700 documents it claimed came from the CIA’s Center for Cyber Intelligence. Some of the leaks indicated the intelligence agency had looked at exploiting security vulnerabilities in smartphones, smart TVs and vehicle computer systems. “There’s no reason the CIA or other intelligence agencies or bad actors couldn’t use those vulnerabilities to hurt people,” an attorney says. The government’s role is to explore security holes in order to make product manufacturers aware of potential hazards, not exploit them, he says.”]
