======================

Security Issue:  
===============  
Philips Hue is vulnerable to Denial of Service attack.  
Sending a SYN flood on port tcp/80 will freeze Philips Hue's hub and it  
will stop responding.  
The "hub" will stop operating and be frozen until the flood will stop.  
During the flood, the user won't be able to turn on/off the lights, and  
all of the hub's functionality will be unresponsive. The cloud service  
will also won't work with the hub.  
  
Attack Vectors:  
===============  
Sending a Syn flood on port 80 inside the LAN will disable hub's  
functionality.
