Btw, a note on why we are 'late' reporting (not to the security trade press, which rarely covers such things but to mainstream IT). As noted in the report, we went back forth between both parties and that took time to get answers, check on things, etc.

Two other things that did not make the post but worth commenting on. Kaspersky included this infographic in their press release:
And report from Sputnik News: Kaspersky Lab Researchers Discover Sinister Flaw in Popular Smart Cameras

I believe it is important to prove the claims, so it can be reproduced and verified by other researchers.
When reading;
It becomes in my eyes clear that will never happen, because how to verify that "all the smart cam owners have installed security updates."
