Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as very critical, was found in FrodoBots EarthRover Mini+ 6.2.4_6.2.5_0.614.0. This affects some unknown processing. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a os command injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-78. The product constructs all or part of an OS command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended OS command before it is sent to a downstream component. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

FrodoBots EarthRover Mini+ firmware (version 6.2.4_6.2.5_0.614.0) is vulnerable to unauthenticated, remote code execution via MQTT. A firmware method accepts arbitrary shell commands delivered via Amazon Web Services Internet of Things Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (AWS IoT MQTT) messages and executes them as root. Access is gated only by shared Internet of Things (IoT) credentials, with no per‑device authentication, enabling remote code execution as root across the fleet.

The advisory is shared at frodobots.ai. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2026-121686 since 11/03/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available.
