AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Network-reachable controller (AV:N) but requires administrative privileges (PR:H); command executes on a separate adopted device (S:C) with full C/I/A impact and no user interaction.

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A malicious actor with access to the network and high privileges could exploit an Improper Input Validation vulnerability found in UniFi Network Application to execute a Command Injection on an adopted device.
Articles & Coverage 1
AnalysisAI
Authenticated command injection in Ubiquiti's UniFi Network Application (the controller software managing UniFi network gear) allows an attacker holding high-privilege access on the network to inject and execute operating-system commands on an adopted device managed by the controller. Because the injected command runs on a downstream device rather than the controller itself, the flaw crosses a trust boundary (CVSS scope change) and yields full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the target device. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to already hold HIGH privileges (administrative access) on the UniFi Network Application controller and network reachability to it - this is confirmed by the CVSS vector PR:H/AV:N. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 base score is 9.1 (Critical) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H - network-reachable, low attack complexity, no user interaction, but requiring HIGH privileges (PR:H). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker who has obtained high-privilege administrative access to a UniFi Network Application controller - for example via stolen admin credentials or an insider with management rights - submits crafted input through a controller function that is relayed to an adopted device. Due to improper input validation, the input is interpreted as an OS command and executes on the adopted device, giving the attacker control over that network device. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade the UniFi Network Application to the fixed release identified in Ubiquiti Security Advisory Bulletin 067 (https://community.ui.com/releases/Security-Advisory-Bulletin-067/fc4a3488-7c43-4628-8bab-f715e96dbfc9) - an exact patched version number is not included in the provided data, so confirm it directly from that advisory. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: inventory all UniFi Network Application controller instances and their managed device population; restrict UniFi administrative access to essential personnel only; enable enhanced logging on controller and all managed devices. …
