Description

Philips Hue is vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack. Sending a SYN flood on port tcp/80 will freeze Philips Hue&#39;s hub and it will stop responding. The "hub" will stop operating and be frozen until the flood stops. During the flood, the user won&#39;t be able to turn on/off the lights, and all of the hub&#39;s functionality will be unresponsive. The cloud service also won&#39;t work with the hub.
