Vulnerability Type:

===============
Philips Hue is vulnerable to Denial of Service attack.

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.
