The suspicion becomes real: hackers can take control of Alexa and listen to you [itigic.com]:
Alexa vs. Alexa Attack
This is a novel method of taking control of a person’s Echo speaker. “An attacker could then use this listening function to set up a social engineering scenario where the skill pretends to be Alexa and responds to user statements as if it were Alexa,” vulnerability researcher Sergio Esposito told The Register.
Amazon has already patched most of the vulnerabilities, except for one in which a Bluetooth-paired device was able to play audio files created through a vulnerable Amazon Echo speaker, Esposito confirmed. A vulnerability tracked as CVE-2022-25809 [ttps] which has been assigned a Medium severity level .
An entry in the US National Vulnerability Database described it as an “improper disablement of audio output” and said it affected “third- and fourth-generation Amazon Echo Dot devices,” allowing “arbitrary execution of voice commands on these devices via a malicious skill (in the case of remote attackers) or by pairing a malicious Bluetooth device (in the case of physically nearby attackers), also known as an “Alexa vs. Alexa (AvA)” attack .
