MiR100, MiR200 and other MiR robots use the Robot Operating System (ROS) default packages exposing the computational graph to all network interfaces, wireless and wired. This is the result of a bad set up and can be mitigated by appropriately configuring ROS and/or applying custom patches as appropriate. Currently, the ROS computational graph can be accessed fully from the wired exposed ports. In combination with other flaws such as CVE-2020-10269, the computation graph can also be fetched and interacted from wireless networks. This allows a malicious operator to take control of the ROS logic and correspondingly, the complete robot given that MiR's operations are centered around the framework (ROS).

An authenticated local attacker with an account on the MiR robot operating system can exploit a Linux kernel vulnerability to perform privilege escalation to root or cause a denial-of-service condition.CVE-2017-7184 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3 base score of 7.8 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H). A handler in the Linux kernel prior to Version 4.11 allows local users to cause a denial-of-service condition or other unspecified impact(s) via use of a large value.CVE-2017-18255 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3 base score of 7.8 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H). Two APIs to the Robot Operating System (ROS) used in MiR robots were accessible from both wired and wireless network interfaces. Using these APIs, an attacker could take control of the robot, cause a denial-of-service condition, and exfiltrate data over the web interface.CVE-2020-10271 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3 base score of 9.8 has been calculated; the CVSS vector string is (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H). Robot Operating System (ROS) default packages are used, which expose the computational graph without any authentication. This could allow an attacker with access to the internal wireless and wired networks to take control of the robot.CVE-2020-10272 has been assigned to this vulnerability. A CVSS v3 base score of 8.8 has been calculated; the CVSS v…
