Samsung TV Root Exploit

log4j posted about owning a 2025 Samsung TV and finding a root shell via a zero day. The firmware was AES encrypted, but they bypassed it. They discovered constant hot mic functionality, automatic content recognition, and geo positioning. It also builds user profiles and shares data with 400 partners. As someone who runs a homelab, I find the amount of telemetry on a $3000 TV horrifying. It is a massive privacy issue.
