DJI Romo: Modder uses PS5 controller to drive robot vacuum, gains access to 7,000 robot cameras
Whoa — a PS5 hack turned into a mass breach: a modder building a PS5-controller app for DJI’s first robot vacuum, the transparent DJI Romo, accidentally gained control of ~7,000 units worldwide. He could steer robots, access mics/speakers, infer locations via IP and even map rooms — all because DJI’s servers accepted a single device token for any Romo. The modder says he didn’t bypass security; DJI patched the flaw on Feb. 11. A sharp reminder: smart-home gadgets can leak a lot more than dust.
