The system incorrectly applies the in-air emergency re-arm logic to ground scenarios. If a pilot switches to Manual mode and re-arms within 5 seconds (default configuration) of an automatic landing, the system bypasses all pre-flight safety checks, including the throttle threshold check. This allows for an immediate high-thrust takeoff if the throttle stick is raised, leading to loss of control.","publishedAt":"2026-03-10T00:00:00.000Z","updatedAt":"2026-03-11T14:51:09.728Z","severity":{"score":8.1,"label":"High","version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","source":"CISA-ADP"},"assigner":"mitre","products":["n/a n/a"],"affected":[{"vendor":"n/a","product":"n/a","versions":[{"version":"n/a","status":"affected"}]}],"references":["https://github.com/npuwyw/PX4-Autopilot/blob/audit-v1.12.3-mode-transition-logic-flaw/PX4_Autopilot_Mode_Switching_Logic_Vulnerability.md"],"weaknesses":["CWE-862"],"ingestedAt":"2026-10-29T20:11:21.040Z","source":{"repository":"CVEProject/cvelistV5","path":"cves/2026/26xxx/CVE-2026-26742.json","commit":"556c9d3a8cd17e218bb8e452ba7cd619a384ff47"},"raw":{"dataType":"CVE_RECORD","dataVersion":"5.2","cveMetadata":{"cveId":"CVE-2026-26742","state":"PUBLISHED","datePublished":"2026-03-10T00:00:00.000Z","dateUpdated":"2026-03-11T14:51:09.728Z","assignerShortName":"mitre","assignerOrgId":"8254265b-2729-46b6-b9e3-3dfca2d5bfca","dateReserved":"2026-02-16T00:00:00.000Z"},"containers":{"cna":{"descriptions":[{"lang":"en","value":"PX4 Autopilot versions 1.12.x through 1.15.x contain a protection mechanism failure in the \"Re-arm Grace Period\" logic.
