Severity by source
AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Network-reachable but needs a low-priv account (PR:L) and user interaction (UI:R); the vendor's 'under certain conditions' implies AC:H, and container/scope breakout with full device compromise gives S:C and C/I/A:H.
Primary rating from Vendor (Ubiquiti).

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A malicious actor with access to the network, low privileges and under certain conditions could exploit an Active Debug Code vulnerability found in certain devices running UniFi OS to escalate privileges within such UniFi OS devices or instances.
AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation in Ubiquiti UniFi OS affects a broad range of gateway, NVR, storage, and Cloud Key appliances running the UniFi OS platform, where leftover Active Debug Code (CWE-489) lets an authenticated low-privilege actor with network access elevate their privileges on the device. The flaw is vendor-reported via Ubiquiti Security Advisory Bulletin 067 and carries a 9.0 CVSS driven by a security-scope change and full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated low-privilege account on the UniFi OS device (CVSS PR:L) and network access to it (AV:N), plus a user interaction (UI:R) to trigger the debug code path. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Signals are mixed but lean toward real priority given the deployment footprint. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker who already holds a low-privilege account on a UniFi OS appliance (for example a limited operator role on a Dream Machine or Cloud Key) reaches the device over the network and, once the required user interaction and specific conditions are met, invokes the leftover debug code path to break out of its restricted context and gain elevated privileges on the underlying host. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, so this would currently require original research. |
| Remediation | Patch available per vendor advisory: apply the UniFi OS updates referenced in Ubiquiti Security Advisory Bulletin 067 (https://community.ui.com/releases/Security-Advisory-Bulletin-067/fc4a3488-7c43-4628-8bab-f715e96dbfc9) to every affected appliance - UniFi OS Server, Cloud Keys, NVR/Enterprise NVR, Enterprise NAS, Dream Machines/Routers/Wall, Express 7, Enterprise Firewall Core, Enterprise Fortress Gateway, and Cloud Gateways - and confirm the fixed build number from that bulletin since exact versions are not in this dataset. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Identify all UniFi OS appliances deployed across your network infrastructure and verify against Ubiquiti Security Advisory Bulletin 067 to determine which versions are affected. …
