- doublerabbit 2y agoYes and no. Depends on the exploit. If the washing machine is already vulnerable than you'd want a security update.
- forgetfreeman 2y agoIf the washing machine isn't connected to a network through what mechanism do software vulns become relevant?
- doublerabbit 2y agoIf the washing machine can connect to WiFi then that's already a vector point of transmitting a payload by connecting to it.
- forgetfreeman 2y agoI don't think that makes a whole lot of sense unless you're proposing bad actors are going to break into my house to...connect my dishwasher to wifi.
