CVE-2026-95862 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.5 · Published 2026-09-22

UniFi gateways are network access points that control internet connectivity and security for organizations. A flaw in certain gateway devices allows an attacker on the network to crash the gateway by writing data to memory in an uncontrolled manner, causing a denial of service. An organization would lose network connectivity until the device restarts or is manually recovered.
