Multiple Bugs in Canon DSLR Camera Let Hackers Infect with Ransomware Over a Rouge WiFi Access Point

* Researchers discovered multiple critical vulnerabilities in Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) that allows attackers to infect the Canon DSLR camera with ransomware to encrypt the pictures and demand the ransom.

* An attacker who is very close with the victim’s WiFi or already hijacked computers with the USB access could propagate them to infect the cameras with deadly malware and ransomware.
