CVE-2026-114357 — DJI CrystalSky ZS600C ships ADB without authentication (ro.adb.secure=0)
Missing authentication for a critical function in the Android Debug Bridge daemon (adbd) in DJI CrystalSky ZS600C firmware v0.3.9.7 through v0.6.6.9 allows an attacker to obtain an unauthenticated shell (uid 2000), a foothold for privilege escalation to root. The device ships with ro.adb.secure=0 (no host key authorization) and USB ADB enabled by default; ADB over TCP is not enabled by default but, once enabled (e.g. via the shipped /system/bin/adbd_tcp.sh or 'setprop persist.adb.tcp.port 5555'), the same unauthenticated shell is reachable over the network (CVSS 4.0 base 9.3).
Who exploits it and how urgent it is
A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.
How the score was calculated
- EPSS 0.3% (30-day exploitation probability)+4
- Technical severity (critical)+10
The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).
Triage
Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.
CISA SSVC assessment CISA
Three decision points CISA publishes for the CVEs it assesses (SSVC 2.0.3). A stakeholder decision, not a severity score.
Remediation
Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.
No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.
First 24 hours
Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.
- Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (DJI CrystalSky ZS600C).
- The attack is network-based and needs no privileges: restrict exposure (ACLs, VPN, WAF) until patched.
- No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
- Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (authentication), errors and authentication anomalies.

Detection
Read off the CVSS vector and the weakness class. Starting points, not tested rules.
- Prioritize edge telemetry for the network-reachable component (proxy, WAF, IDS/IPS).
- Review authentication logs: logins without MFA, anomalous sessions and recently created accounts.

What should defenders know first?
CVE-2026-114357 is "DJI CrystalSky ZS600C ships ADB without authentication (ro.adb.secure=0)", rated Critical. It affects CrystalSky ZS600C (DJI); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. CVSS 9.3 describes technical severity. EPSS 0.31% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context. First verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run the affected versions, apply vendor fixes or mitigations, and preserve logs for review.
