I found an amazon basics color changing smart light bulb attached to a lamp my neighbor threw in the apartment dumpster.

@MLE_online @RueNahcMohr Cool. Cheaper than making an assembly line. Neat use for it.

@RueNahcMohr so it will be an exciting challenge for you!

[mle_online@social.afront.org]

@RueNahcMohr No one else is volunteering!

[ruenahcmohr@infosec.exchange]

@MLE_online hmmm...

@nickzoic I see test pads for 108 and 109 on the PCB, so something isn't adding up here

[mle_online@social.afront.org]

@nickzoic "O7/IO8/IO9/IO10/IO20 belong to VDD_SDIO power domain and cannot work when VDD_SDIO power shuts down"

this means something, but I don't know what

@MLE_online esptool.py can also be used to read from the flash, not only write to it. But it's possible that someone already has done it for such a device.

@nickzoic that's a good theory

[maehw@chaos.social]

@MLE_online I really have no clue about those devices, but that may be running something called Alexa Connect Kit (ACK) firmware.

@maehw yeah, i saw that too

[stellafoxxie@oldbytes.space]

@MLE_online ooo i bet you could extract their wifi password from it

[madrabbit@chaos.social]

@MLE_online I think people I know have run WLED on those bulbs or similar ones

[mle_online@social.afront.org]

@maehw That seems promising. I'm not really sure where to start though

[riverpunk@defcon.social]

@MLE_online how else are they supposed to spy on you and sell your data to surveillance companies so that they can determine if you qualify for housing 10 years from now?

@RueNahcMohr @MLE_online best opportunity to make a robot out of it!

@larrybiggs @MLE_online
How did the term "hacking" come to be a thing?

[ftg@mastodon.radio]

@MLE_online
Oh cool. A new ESP32 board source.
It's even on a desolderable module.
And ESP32 is more hackable than the Silabs EFR32 in IKEA Trodfri's.
At least until I port the Gekkokapula firmware to the module I pulled form one and get on 2.4GHz FM with one.

[mle_online@social.afront.org]

@ftg I'm not getting anywhere with connecting to the module, however. I've got it wired up to an FTDI device, but esptools fails to connect to it, and I don't know why
