Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:HCVSS and EPSS are reproduced from their sources (NVD, FIRST EPSS). Risk Priority is our own derived reading, not an NVD score.
Summary
CVE-2026-26673 is a high-severity Uncontrolled Resource Consumption (CWE-400) vulnerability in Dji Mavic Mini Firmware. Its CVSS base score is 7.5 (High).
Operationally, ranked at the 49th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SC-5 (Denial-of-service Protection) and SC-6 (Resource Availability) — see the control section below for these in your framework.
Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary
Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2026-26673 is a denial-of-service vulnerability in the DJI Enhanced-WiFi transmission subsystem of specific DJI drone models, including Mavic Mini, Spark, Mavic Air, Mini, and Mini SE running firmware version 0.1.00.0500 and below. Classified under CWE-400 (Uncontrolled Resource Consumption), the flaw enables resource exhaustion, earning a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).
A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability over the network with low attack complexity, no required privileges, and no user interaction. Exploitation leads to a denial of service, severely impacting the affected drone's availability by disrupting WiFi transmission without compromising confidentiality or integrity.

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
SC-5 directly limits the effects of resource-exhaustion events that constitute uncontrolled consumption.
SC-6 enforces explicit allocation limits on resources, structurally preventing the weakness from occurring.
Process isolation confines resource consumption to separate domains, reducing blast radius without stopping the root flaw.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Resource-utilization monitoring and alerting on bottlenecks or overloads limits the impact of denial-of-service or resource-exhaustion attacks.
A.8.6's monitoring, stress-testing, projections, tuning, demand-reduction steps (e.g. optimizing queries, deleting obsolete data, restricting non-critical bandwidth) and capacity planning directly stop most uncontrolled consumption from being exploitable by keeping resources within safe bounds; the bounded remainder is algorithmic flaws (e.g. infinite loops, uncontrolled recursion) that no amount of capacity planning can prevent from exhausting a resource when triggered.
Early notification of anomalous resource consumption or system malfunctions enables throttling or isolation before availability is lost.
Monitoring network service usage and applying controls to restrict access when necessary limits an attacker’s ability to consume excessive resources through unrestricted or unauthenticated service calls.
Hardening callouts derived
DISA STIG baselines are authored against specific weaknesses. Where this CVE cites a broad weakness class, the mapping is not asserted at that abstraction (owner ruling, 2026-09-25: grade only at Base and below), so no rule is shown here rather than a rule shown against the wrong grain.
