Control-link interruption via replayed pairing frames
Published Mar 4, 2026 · Updated Mar 4, 2026
Replay-based denial of service in DJI Mavic Mini, Spark, and Mini SE allows remote attackers to interrupt controller links. The Enhanced Wi-Fi subsystem accepts a replayed, re-encrypted static pairing sequence and terminates the legitimate drone-controller connection. Wireless range and recovery of the WEP key are required; sustained frame transmission blocks control and telemetry on the ground or in flight.
