CVE-2026-10557 · Severity: critical · CVSS 9.8 · Published 2026-06-12

Yarbo produces autonomous yard robots, such as snowblowers and lawn mowers, managed via mobile apps. A security flaw was found where the mobile applications used the same hard-coded login credentials for every user and robot worldwide. An attacker could use these credentials to track the real-time location of any Yarbo robot and potentially send unauthorized movement or operational commands, posing a physical safety risk and a significant privacy breach.

## Technical details

The Yarbo mobile applications (Android and iOS) utilize hard-coded MQTT broker credentials (CWE-798) that are shared across the entire product ecosystem. These credentials can be easily extracted by decompiling the application binary (APK/IPA). Once obtained, an attacker can connect to the Yarbo cloud MQTT infrastructure without further authentication. The vulnerability allows for wildcard subscriptions to telemetry topics, exposing real-time data for all robots globally. Furthermore, by using a robot's serial number (which is visible in the telemetry stream), an attacker can publish messages to a robot's command topic to remotely control its operations. A fix is available in mobile app version 3.17.4 and via server-side authorization updates deployed in May 2026.
