Security advisories disclosed (5)
DisclosedAt date, not vendor response or verification dates.
- Advisory disclosure
Unitree G1 and H1 Wi-Fi configuration command injection →
The CNA identifies an OS command-injection weakness in Unitree Wi-Fi configuration and names G1 and H1. Its structured affected range lists G1 firmware through 1.4.4; no H1 firmware range is given. The CNA treats this as distinct from CVE-2025-60017.
- Advisory disclosure
Unitree G1 and H1 access-point configuration command injection →
The CVE record reports root-level command injection in Unitree Wi-Fi access-point configuration. This is one of the separately cataloged weaknesses in the UniPwn disclosure. The CNA advisory for CVE-2025-35027 distinguishes the two command-injection code paths and notes imprecise wording in this record.
- Advisory disclosure
Unitree G1 and H1 BLE provisioning uses shared cryptographic secrets →
The CVE record identifies hardcoded cryptographic material in the BLE provisioning protocol of Unitree G1 and H1. Shared secrets weaken the protection of provisioning communications. This finding is part of the UniPwn disclosure and is separate from its command-injection flaws.
- Advisory disclosure
Unitree G1 and H1 BLE provisioning handshake authentication bypass →
The CVE record describes inadequate authentication in the BLE provisioning handshake used by Unitree G1 and H1. It classifies the issue as missing authentication for a critical function. This is a distinct protocol weakness within the UniPwn disclosure.
- Advisory disclosure
Unitree G1 telemetry privacy findings disputed by the manufacturer →
The researchers report G1 telemetry transmissions of sensor and service-state data without explicit operator notice or consent. Unitree states that internet access requires user configuration and authorization, and that connected robots may send serial-number and health-state data. Unitree denies collecting private or sensitive data without authorization.
Models released / introduced (5)
Model released date; this can be an announcement or paper introduction, not necessarily public weights.
- Model release / introduction
Gemini Robotics 1.5 →
Gemini Robotics 1.5 combines motor action generation with natural-language reasoning about actions. Its motion-transfer training supports demonstrations across ALOHA 2, Apptronik Apollo and bimanual Franka embodiments.
- Model release / introduction
Gemini Robotics-ER 1.5 →
Gemini Robotics-ER 1.5 supplies high-level planning, spatial reasoning and tool use for robot agents. The system passes language instructions to a VLA and estimates task progress and completion; developer access is through the Gemini API.
- Model release / introduction
GO-1 →
GO-1 is the AgiBot World team's VLA pretrained on its robot manipulation dataset. The public model uses an InternVL 2.5 backbone; the open-release study examines training and evaluation practices using AgiBot G1.
- Model release / introduction
UnifoLM-WMA-0 →
UnifoLM-WMA-0 predicts robot interactions and actions, with G1 camera-packing deployment examples. Its model-card body specifies CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 for the model despite an Apache-2.0 metadata tag.
- Model release / introduction
WALL-OSS →
WALL-OSS couples a Qwen2.5-VL-3B backbone to action generation and multimodal reasoning. Wall-X code uses Apache-2.0, but separately stated checkpoint license terms were not established.

Method and coverage limits
Computed from dated records in our ledgers; counts reflect our coverage, not the whole market. Month buckets use the record’s own date string, including an article’s written timezone date. We never convert it to another timezone. Month-precision dates are retained; year-only and unknown dates cannot be assigned to a month. Exact dates after the build date are excluded, including future dates within the current month.
Verification dates are not announcements, releases or record-creation dates and do not enter these totals. The catalog has no addedAt field: only explicit robot record creations documented in news count as additions. A robot can appear in both announcements and additions; totals count dated ledger items, not unique robots or independent market events.
Deployments without a start date use the earliest source publication with month precision as a disclosure date, visibly labelled on the item. Undated deployments are excluded. Evidence grades and stages describe the current ledger, so a later verification or reclassification may change a past report’s breakdown.
These pages are generated from current records at each build, including past months. They are not frozen quarterly vintages or a census. Linked records retain qualifications, source attribution and unknowns. A missing item does not establish that nothing happened in the market.
Detail pages are generated for months with at least five dated items, plus the current month to date. Sparse past months are summarised by year on the archive. A current month with fewer than five items is noindex; only generated indexable months appear in the sitemap and Atom feed. Sitemap lastmod uses the latest dated item in that month, preserving month precision when no exact day is known. The Atom feed’s updated date is the UTC build date because every digest is regenerated.
