CVE-2026-76640 is a multi-stage proximity attack chain affecting Unitree G1 EDU firmware through 1.5.2. The BLE GATT implementation permits an initial bootstrap interaction without Bluetooth pairing. Following application-level BLE authentication, attacker-controlled Wi-Fi provisioning SSID data is appended to a fixed 500-byte BSS buffer without validating the cumulative input length. The retained chunk state permits the overflow to be accumulated across BLE reconnections. Memory corruption can overwrite adjacent event-loop cleanup state and redirect control flow so that a cleanup path invokes system() with attacker-controlled data. The affected service executes with root privileges on the robot's Locomotion PC.

A Bluetooth Low Energy vulnerability affecting Unitree G1 EDU robots. An attacker within BLE range can bootstrap communication without pairing; after obtaining an AES authentication key and leveraging CVE-2026-76639, the demonstrated chain exploits a BLE-component buffer overflow to execute code as root on the Locomotion PC. The research demonstrated limited robot-to-robot self-propagation in a two-device test.
An unauthenticated Bluetooth-based remote-code-execution chain affecting Unitree G1 robots. Attackers within Bluetooth range could obtain the robot's AES-128 key through a cloud decryption-oracle/ownership-validation weakness, authenticate to Bluetooth functions, induce the robot to join an attacker-controlled Wi-Fi network, and exploit a Bluetooth-server buffer overflow for root execution. A compromised robot could potentially propagate the attack to nearby G1 robots.
A critical, multi-stage nearby attack chain against Unitree G1 robots involving unauthenticated Bluetooth Low Energy access, an ownership-authorization failure in Unitree's cloud decryption endpoint, Wi-Fi provisioning manipulation, and a btgatt-server buffer overflow. The chain can result in root-level code execution on the robot's locomotion computer.
A Bluetooth Low Energy proximity-based root remote-code-execution chain affecting the Unitree G1 EDU robot. An unauthenticated nearby attacker can initiate bootstrap interaction without pairing and exploit a Wi-Fi-provisioning buffer overflow to gain root execution.
