CVE-2026-12991
HighCVSS 8.7Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk4th percentile - higher than 4% of all known CVEs
Summary
Lack of cryptographic mechanisms in Ghost Robotics Vision 60 robot (APK v5.5.0) enables man-in-the-middle attacks. An attacker on the local network can intercept and manipulate communications between the operator and the robot.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can take control of the robot, disconnect the legitimate operator, and prevent them from regaining control, compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability of operations.
Recommendation
Implement encryption and authentication for communications (e.g., TLS) and use mechanisms to prevent ARP spoofing attacks.
Other vulnerabilities in Ghost Robotics Vision 60
See all- CVE-2025-41108Critical
The communication protocol implemented in Ghost Robotics Vision 60 v0.27.2 could allow an attacker to send commands to the robot from an external attack station, impersonating the control station (tablet) and gaining unauthorised full control of the robot. The absence of encryption and authentication mechanisms in the communication protocol allows an attacker to capture legitimate traffic between the robot and the controller, replicate it, and send any valid command to the robot from any attacking computer or device. The communication protocol used in this interface is based on MAVLink, a widely documented protocol, which increases the likelihood of attack. There are two methods for connecting to the robot remotely: Wi-Fi and 4G/LTE.
- CVE-2026-12990High
An access control vulnerability in the mobile app (APK v5.5.0) for Ghost Robotics Vision 60 robot allows multiple simultaneous sessions without client validation. An attacker with a modified app can connect during an active session.
- CVE-2026-12989High
Lack of authentication in the mobile app (APK v5.5.0) for Ghost Robotics Vision 60 robot allows an unauthenticated attacker on the Wi-Fi network full access to the web admin interface and HTTP API.
- CVE-2025-41110High
Encrypted WiFi and SSH credentials were found in Ghost Robotics Vision 60 v0.27.2 APK. An attacker can connect to the robot's WiFi and view all data, and via SSH gain full control, potentially causing physical damage.
- CVE-2025-41109Medium
The Ghost Robotics Vision 60 robot version v0.27.2 includes physical interfaces such as three RJ45 connectors and a USB Type-C port, which lack authentication mechanisms when establishing connections. The robot's internal router automatically assigns IP addresses to any physically connected device, and the robot runs on ROS 2 without authentication by default.
Original NVD description (English source)
The lack of cryptographic mechanisms to ensure the integrity and authenticity of communications in Ghost Robotics' Vision 60 robot (APK v5.5.0) exposes the system to man-in-the-middle attacks. An attacker located on the local network can use ARP spoofing and selective traffic blocking techniques to intercept and manipulate packets between the legitimate operator and the robot. This allows the attacker to disconnect the original controller, establish unauthorized communications, and prevent the operator from regaining control of the device, seriously compromising the confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CIA) of operations.
