A security researcher discovered a vulnerability in the Lovense app, which allows users to remotely control sex toys, that exposed user email addresses. The researcher, BobDaHacker, found they could derive email addresses from usernames and potentially take over accounts. Despite notifying Lovense in March, the company allegedly took months to address the issue and hasn't fully resolved it. This is not the first time Lovense has faced security concerns; in 2017, the app was criticized for a bug that recorded user sex sessions.
