Vulnerabilities in a range of robot vacuum cleaners allow miscreants to access the gadgets' camera and remote-control the gizmos.

Security researchers at Positive Technologies (PT) this week disclosed that Dongguan Diqee 360 smart vacuum cleaners contain security flaws that hackers can exploit to spy on people through the night-vision camera and take control of the Roomba rip-off. The security issues, discovered by PT's Leonid Krolle and Georgy Zaytsev, likely affect products sold under other brands as well.
