Hackers can spy on Peloton bike and treadmill users
CBSN
Peloton says it has fixed a security flaw in the fitness equipment maker's stationary bike and treadmill products that potentially allowed hackers to spy on users and even control their exercise machines.
Security software company McAfee identified the vulnerability, warning that someone with physical access to Peloton's Bike+ and Tread+ products could gain control of the devices through a USB port on the interactive tablet mounted on the machines that are used to stream live workouts. Peloton acknowledged the weakness in a press release Thursday, explaining that an attacker could "modify the software on the device, and could then install malware or access data that is communicated between the device and our services."More Related News
