AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Requires a pre-existing high-privilege account so PR:H; escalation stays within the same application so I assess S:U (vendor used S:C), with full CIA loss over the controller giving C:H/I:H/A:H.
Primary rating from Vendor (Ubiquiti).

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A malicious actor with access to the network and high privileges could exploit an Improper Access Control vulnerability found in UniFi Network Application to escalate privileges within the UniFi Network Application.
AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation in Ubiquiti's UniFi Network Application allows an already-authenticated, high-privileged user with network access to gain elevated rights within the application through an improper access control (CWE-284) flaw. Ubiquiti self-reported the issue in Security Advisory Bulletin 067 and tags it as an authentication bypass; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to already be an authenticated user holding high privileges (PR:H) within the UniFi Network Application, with network reachability to the controller (AV:N); no end-user interaction is needed (UI:N) and attack complexity is low (AC:L). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals are mixed. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A user who already holds a high-privilege (e.g., limited-admin or site-admin) role on the UniFi Network Application connects over the network and abuses the improper access control flaw to escalate to full application control, letting them alter configurations, exfiltrate managed-device data, or disrupt the network. No user interaction is required (UI:N) and complexity is low (AC:L), but the attacker must first possess valid high privileges; no public exploit code is currently available. |
| 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 fixed version number is not present in the provided data, so treat this as Patch available per vendor advisory and confirm the target build from that bulletin before deploying. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, audit all UniFi administrator accounts and review administrative access logs for suspicious privilege escalation attempts or unauthorized configuration changes. …
