VicOne has identified 28 zero-day vulnerabilities in less than two days through AI-assisted research focused on tools within the Physical AI ecosystem. These vulnerabilities affect software developed or maintained by major companies such as Google, NVIDIA, and Meta, and are classified as zero-day due to their unknown status and lack of available fixes.
The significance of these findings lies in their potential impact on robotics teams, which rely on these tools for training, simulation, testing, and operation. The vulnerabilities could compromise the integrity of the models built, the reliability of test results, and the instructions sent to robots, necessitating a swift response to assess the implications for robot safety and operations.
VicOne's findings highlight vulnerabilities across three stages of the robotics lifecycle: development and training, simulation and validation, and deployment and runtime. With 75% of the findings related to pre-deployment tools, teams must evaluate the risks and ensure that safeguards remain effective, especially when software vulnerabilities are exploited, as demonstrated by a case where a remote-stop command was compromised.
