This could allow an attacker to inject malicious code into the Sonos One’s software controlled by the attacker controlled WiFi card. It is important to note that WiFi card is the only external component that can be controlled by the Sonos One. Thus, Sonos One is penetrated by an attacker with physical access to the device but it is not necessary for an attacker to have physical access to the device in order to exploit this vulnerability. For example, a hotel WiFi system that is controlled by the Sonos One could be hacked remotely. An attacker can send a maliciously crafted WiFi signal that is processed by the Sonos One, control the WiFi signal sent by the Sonos One, and then control the device that receives the signal, such as a TV. An attacker can also inject a malicious code by changing the code on the WiFi card. An attacker can then install software on the Sonos One that could be used to sniff data from the Sonos One or to inject data into the Sonos One. An attacker can also update the WiFi card on the Sonos One, for example, to patch a vulnerability. Thus, an attacker can use the Sonos One in a variety of ways, such as to change the software, inject malicious code into the software, or to change the software to inject malicious code into the software.

How can I test if my Sonos One is vulnerable?

Sonos One devices that are vulnerable to CVE-2020-9285 can be tested by going through WiFi settings. The Sonos One will repeatedly scan for new WiFi networks. If a new network is found and connected to, the Sonos One will not start playing music or audio until authentication has completed with the network.

Introduction: What you should know about this WiFi hack

A WiFi hack on the Sonos One can occur when an attacker is within range of a Sonos One. The device uses a WiFi card that it controls, so the attacker must be in range of the WiFi card to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker can control the WiFi card and then trick the Sonos One into executing malicious code and injecting it into software controlled by the Sonos One. As a result, an attacker can use the system in a variety of ways, such as to change software, inject malicious code into the software, or to change software to inject malicious code into the software.

Sonos One Software Overview

The Sonos One is a smart speaker that is capable of playing music wirelessly from a variety of sources such as internet radio, Spotify, and others. Unlike other speakers that are controlled by an app on the user’s device (e.g., iPhone or Android), the Sonos One is controlled by a WiFi card mounted on the backend of the device and connected to the network via Ethernet cable. The WiFi card controls information transmitted between the Sonos One and its network connection. The WiFi card handles both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth communication with the outside world, so it can be manipulated remotely via a malicious code injected into the software running on it.
