Hackable Robot Lawn Mower Unlocks a New Nightmare

Researchers found multiple security flaws in Yarbo’s $5,000 autonomous lawn mower system.

The bugs could let attackers remotely take over the mower, view camera feeds, and steal email addresses, Wi‑Fi passwords, and home locations.

Because the device is heavy and blade-equipped, the issues pose real physical safety and privacy risks.

Yarbo says it is working on a fix for at least one of the vulnerabilities.
