Ring

A security flaw in Ring’s Neighbors app exposed the precise locations and home addresses of users who had posted to the app.

It included the videos taken by Ring doorbells and security cameras and the bug made it possible to retrieve the location data of users who posted to the app.

The bug retrieved the hidden data, including the user’s latitude and longitude and their home address, from Ring’s servers.

The hackers also created tools to break into Ring accounts and over 1,500 user account passwords were found on the dark web.
