Your Alexa can be HACKED
How secure is your Alexa?
Researchers have discovered new vulnerabilities in these home assistant devices that would allow them to self-issue commands, to open doors, tamper with smart devices, and listen to your conversation.
The original report was released in February:
https://arxiv.org/pdf/2202.08619.pdf
And a great new article in Ars Technica summarized the findings well:
https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/03/attackers-can-force-amazon-echos-to-hack-themselves-with-self-issued-commands/
We go into details of the possible hacks with one of the researchers, Sergio Esposito, and with the author of the Ars Technica report, Dan Goodin.
