Wyze Bug Lets Thousands of Users View Each Other's Security Footage
- Wyze home security cameras experienced a glitch that allowed 13,000 customers to view each other's footage last Friday
- The breach was originally said to impact only 14 customers, but the number was far higher
- The issue started after an Amazon Web Services outage that disrupted Wyze's cloud services
- A "third-party caching client library" failed to handle the surge in demand as services came back online
- This is the latest in a series of past security issues for Wyze, including a similar camera mix-up last September
