“A newly discovered exploit in a technology standard known as ‘universal plug and play’ (UPnP) is big enough that hackers on the Internet could remotely access and control ‘millions’ of compatible devices like cameras, printers and routers, security researchers said Tuesday.

That means an enterprising hacker could, say, exploit the bug to print unwanted messages on a personal printer, or turn on a webcam unbeknownst to the owner.”
