## Technical details

UniFi Access contains an improper input validation flaw that enables command injection attacks. An attacker with network access and low-level privileges can craft malicious input that bypasses validation checks and execute arbitrary commands with system-level privileges on the host device. The vulnerability requires network access but no authentication escalation, making it exploitable by low-privilege users already on the network. Successful exploitation allows complete compromise of the access control system, including credential theft, access policy modification, and facility access bypasses.
