CVE-2020-10271Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Robot takeover via network-exposed ROS graph

Published Jun 24, 2020 · Updated Sep 16, 2024

Exposure of the ROS computational graph in Mobile Industrial Robots A/S MiR100 2.8.1.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to control the robot. Default ROS packages bind the graph service to every wired and wireless interface, allowing unauthenticated graph reads and commands. A wired network connection reaches it directly; wireless access additionally depends on the separate access-point flaw, and successful commands can alter robot logic and motion.
