Poisoned Calendar invites, ChatGPT, and Bromide

Poisoned Calendar invites, ChatGPT, and Bromide

A poisoned Google Calendar invite that can hijack your smart home, a man is hospitalised after ChatGPT told him to season his food with… pesticide, and some thoughts on Superman’s latest cinematic outing.

All this and more is discussed in the latest edition of the "Smashing Security" podcast by cybersecurity veterans Graham Cluley, joined this week by special guest Dave Bittner from The Cyberwire.
