Technical details

An improper access control vulnerability (CWE-284) exists in the Ubiquiti UniFi Connect Application prior to version 3.4.20. The flaw allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access to bypass authorization mechanisms and achieve command injection on the underlying host operating system. Given the CVSS score of 10.0 and the 'Scope: Changed' metric, an exploit could lead to full system compromise and lateral movement within the network. Users are advised to update the UniFi Connect Application to version 3.4.20 or later to mitigate this risk.
