Does this mean I should drop a lamp shade over the one in our bedroom, when....well you know....?

  my wife wouldn't let me put one in mine.

I would worry more if they got my home address also thru my ip camera.

It all depends if you laughed or not.

All I know is that the airsight cams I purchased recently ARE affected by this exploit.
I tried it out on my x10 camera's when I was NOT logged in and was able to see the login and passwords. Actually, I was able to get a FULL dump of every setting I had on each camera.
The maker of Foscam cams is the same maker of these cams. Actually they are all the same cams with a different firmware and sometimes different case, but all the guts are the same.
I'm hoping x10 is going to release firmware updates for the cams affected soon or else I will be putting these cams up on ebay and switching to a different branded camera.

Does the Airsight cameras have custom firmware?

[Mud Pie]

I wonder if the recently released web UI update addressed this ?

[TheShawnster]

Yikes!!!! I am just preparing to order a bunch of the Airsight PTZ Pros. Is this really an issue? If so, you would hope X-10 customer support would have answers. Has anyone asked them yet?

[Kevin22]

I thought about calling, but then decided that I'd never get back those 30 minutes of my life and put my phone down.
They don't have a clue and probably don't care.
