You might think your smart home setup is just a collection of lights and thermostats, but if you are experimenting with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), you are effectively running a small, potentially exposed server in your living room. OX Security’s ‘Welcome to the Jungle’ report, published this month via The Hacker News , scanned 15,465 publicly indexed MCP servers across five registries and found that about 0.45% are running on personal or home machines, often exposed via consumer tunneling services like ngrok.
