Robot control and data access via unauthenticated sockets
Published Sep 21, 2025 · Updated Sep 21, 2025
Improper authentication in Hugging Face LeRobot 0.3.0 through 0.3.3 allows remote attackers to control LeKiwi robots over the local network. The LeKiwi remote handler binds its ZeroMQ command and video sockets to all interfaces without authentication or access control. Network access to the configured ports is sufficient to send robot commands or receive camera images and robot-state data.
