Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in UnitreeRobotics Unitree Go2 up to 1.1.9/1.1.11. It has been rated as critical. Affected by this issue is an unknown code block of the file unitree_go2.db of the component com.unitree.doggo2. The manipulation of the argument pyCode with an unknown input leads to a data authenticity vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-345. The product does not sufficiently verify the origin or authenticity of data, in a way that causes it to accept invalid data. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Unitree Go2 firmware versions 1.1.7 through 1.1.11, when used with the Unitree Go2 Android application (com.unitree.doggo2), are vulnerable to remote code execution due to missing integrity protection and validation of user-created programmes. The Android application stores programs in a local SQLite database (unitree_go2.db, table dog_programme) and transmits the programme_text content, including the pyCode field, to the robot. The robot's actuator_manager.py executes the supplied Python as root without integrity verification or content validation. An attacker with local access to the Android device can tamper with the stored programme record to inject arbitrary Python that executes when the user triggers the program via a controller keybinding, and the malicious binding persists across reboots. Additionally, a malicious program shared through the application's community marketplace can result in arbitrary code execution on any robot that imports and runs it.

The weakness was presented by Olivier Laflamme and Ruikai Peng. The advisory is available at boschko.ca. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2026-27510 since 02/19/2026. The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack may be launched remotely. No form of authentication is required for exploitation. Successful exploitation requires user interaction by the victim. Technical details are known, but there is no available exploit. The structure of the vulnerability defines a possible price range of USD $0-$5k at the moment (estimation calculated on 03/12/2026).

There is no information about possible countermeasures known. It may be suggested to replace the affected object with an alternative product.
