ai6yr,

Why do I get the feeling I need to war drive around the neighborhood to find all the Wi-Fi enabled ovens in the neighborhood, and then run some vulnerability scanners on them?

@ai6yr Why, in God’s name, would an oven need Wi-Fi???

@ai6yr so you can pick up a frozen pizza on the way home and have the oven at the correct temperature when you walk in the door. I don't have wifi on my oven and doubt i'd use it, but at least there is a use case.

What I want to know is why my fridge has WiFi. I can't come up with a use case. (Which is why i've never tried to connect it)

ai6yr,

Apparently these have been hacked before... (patched, however). Nothing like turning on the gas on your oven remotely while you are sleeping... 😱 https://phys.org/news/2017-10-flaw-hackers-smart-ovens.html

@ChampersBE @ai6yr weary sysadmin response: "If somebody really wanted to break into my house here is a long list of ways to do so that don't involve IT stuff, starting with putting a rock through the window. Hey Google: set the oven to 425 degrees and put on Nirvana!"
