Google has temporarily disconnected Xiaomi's IP cameras from its Home Hub service after a user reported that he was seeing images from other people's devices.
Reddit user u/Dio-V found that Xiaomi's Mijia 1080p IP camera was sending still images from other peoples' homes when he accessed it via his Google Home Hub.
The camera, which Dio-V said was purchased new and had up-to-date firmware, sent multiple images from other peoples' Xiaomi cameras when connected to the Google device.
In this case, it happened during the integration between Mi Home Security Camera Basic 1080p and the Google Home Hub with a display screen under poor network conditions.
Late night on January 1st, we were made aware of an issue where a Reddit user posted that their Nest Hub was able to access other people's Xiaomi camera feeds.
