CVE-2026-128910

DJI AeroScope Mobile: Hard-coded root password on the serial console

  • Medium 6.8

Description

Use of hard-coded credentials (CWE-798) on the 1300 communications board in DJI AeroScope Mobile (TP703) firmware 03.00.00.26, with 1300 communications board firmware 02.00.07.12 through 02.00.08.40, allows an attacker with physical access to the board's serial console to log in as root. The same password hash is present on every unit and uses DES crypt, so the password can be recovered offline from the distributed firmware. No network login service accepts this password by default. Confirmed on a physical device. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer. DJI has discontinued AeroScope Mobile and no fixed firmware is available.

What to do

  • DJI AeroScope Mobile has been discontinued and is no longer supported by DJI. No fixed firmware is available. Operators should plan to replace affected units with a supported product and, until then, apply the workarounds.CNA solution statement
  • Restrict physical access to deployed units and their serial console, and treat any unit that has left controlled custody as having a known root password. Network isolation does not mitigate this issue.CNA workaround statement

Historical context and remediation

This reference retains the original CVE publication date. A recent record update does not mean a new attack occurred.

No separately sourced impact summary is available on this page yet. Consult the description, version data and dated exploitation evidence.

Version statuses below come from the CNA. An “unaffected” version is not necessarily a currently supported release or proof of a patch date. EPSS is a dated risk estimate, not a count of historical attacks.
