A browser bug was enough to hack an Amazon Echo – TechCrunch

Team Fluoroacetate members Amat Cama and Richard Zhu scored $60,000 in bug bounties for their integer overflow exploit against Amazon Echo Show 5, an Alexa-powered smart display.

The researchers mentioned that the device uses an older version of Chromium, Google’s open-source browser projects which had been forked some time during its development.
