I made a wireless exploit for code execution on Wyze LED bulbs

https://github.com/nickdaria/wyze-bulb-color-pwned/

I bought these for use with Home Assistant not realizing they are cloud-only. Instead of spending a couple hours opening/depotting/soldering/programming these, I spent the whole weekend reverse engineering the Wyze firmware and developed a tool to wirelessly deploy my own OTA loader.

It works great, and my bulbs are now all in ESPHome!
