Unknown · Px4-Autopilot · CVE-2026-26741
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
PX4 Autopilot versions 1.12.x through 1.15.x
**Description**
The autopilot software contains a logic flaw in the mode switching mechanism. Specifically, when transitioning from Auto mode to Manual mode while the drone is in the "ARMED" state – after landing and before the automatic disarm triggered by the `COM DISARM LAND` parameter – a safety check for the physical throttle stick is missing. This can lead to loss of control, rapid uncontrolled ascent (flyaway), and potential property damage.
**Recommendations**
Versions 1.12.x through 1.15.x should be updated when a fix is available.
