CVE-2025-35027Public exploit

Root command execution via unsanitized WiFi settings

Published Sep 26, 2025 · Updated Sep 26, 2025

Command injection in Unitree Go2 1.1.8 and earlier and G1 1.4.4 and earlier allows physically proximate attackers to execute commands as root. The BLE WiFi service places attacker-controlled SSID or password data into a shell command that restart_wifi_ap or restart_wifi_sta passes directly to system() without validation. BLE range and completion of the shared-key handshake are required; the country-code instruction triggers the WiFi restart and grants full robot control.
