Ring video doorbell: Could this home security system be vulnerable to breaches?

USATODAY - Tech Top Stories 

Question: How can I tell if my Ring doorbell has the update that protects me from the latest vulnerability? Answer: The Ring doorbell is an extremely popular device that millions of households around the world have installed for security purposes and because it's so popular, it's also the constant focus of security researchers. In the most recent vulnerability, it was discovered to be possible for your Ring doorbell to broadcast the password for your Wi-Fi network in plain text (http:// instead of https://) which could technically allow anyone nearby to capture it and access your home network. Once a malicious user has access to your home network, they can potentially access sensitive information or other devices connected to your network. This vulnerability was only possible during the initial setup process, but researchers pointed out that fake messages to the user could trick them into thinking that they needed to reconfigure their Ring device and it's not hard to figure out which homes have the doorbell.
