Security experts have demonstrated how easy it is to hack network-enabled LED light bulbs.
Context Security released details about how it was able to hack into the wi-fi network of one brand of network-enabled bulb, and control the lights remotely.
The LIFX light bulb, which is available to buy in the UK, has network connectivity to let people turn it on and off with their smartphones.
The firm behind the bulbs has since fixed the vulnerability.
Michael Jordon, research director at Context, explained how he was able to obtain the wi-fi username and password of the household the lights were connected to.
"We bought some light bulbs and examined how they talked to each other and saw that one of the messages was about the username and password," he told the BBC.
"By posing as a new bulb joining the network we were able to get that information," he added.
