Dishwasher has directory traversal bug

I suspect you mean 1,400 rpm, not 14,000. My latest washing machine (last one died messily, although I knew it was on its way out and ran it until it died) handles 9Kg of cottons at 1,600rpm (and probably 95 degrees wash at the same time).

I'd bet that the IoT bit of connected washing machines can't make the drum explode, as the most reasonable course of action is for the manufacturer to use the same controller, and provide an interface to it, rather than provide unfettered access.
