CVE-2026-114356 DJI CVE debrief

Who should care

Defenders responsible for managing and securing DJI CrystalSky ZS600C systems, particularly those using affected firmware versions, should assess exposure and prioritize remediation.

Why it matters

Defenders should care about CVE-2026-114356 because it allows a local application to invoke privileged operations on DJI CrystalSky ZS600C systems without authorization, potentially leading to system modifications and requiring verification and remediation efforts.

• Local privilege escalation requires verification
• Potential for unauthorized system modifications
• Need for verifying and applying vendor remediation
• Monitoring for suspicious activity related to privileged operations

Technical summary

The DJIUpdateService binder in DJI CrystalSky ZS600C firmware versions 0.3.9.7 through 0.6.6.9 on Android lacks authorization, allowing a local application with no permissions to invoke privileged operations, including factory reset, shutdown, clock/timezone change, and firmware-apply hand-off. This vulnerability is due to the absence of caller-identity or permission checks in the onTransact() method, which enables unauthorized access to system-privileged operations. Defenders should prioritize verifying and applying vendor remediation for affected systems, restricting local application permissions, and monitoring for suspicious activity.

Defensive priority

Defenders should prioritize verifying and applying vendor remediation for affected systems, restricting local application permissions, and monitoring for suspicious activity.

Recommended defensive actions

• Verify and apply vendor remediation for affected systems
• Restrict local application permissions to minimize potential impact
• Monitor for suspicious activity related to privileged operations
• Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified
• Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
• Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented
• Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up
