CVE-2026-55112
HighCVSS 7.5Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk10th percentile - higher than 10% of all known CVEs
Summary
A vulnerability in UniFi OS with UniFi Protect Application allows privilege escalation on the host device. The flaw is due to improper access control, which can be exploited by a malicious actor with network access and low privileges under certain conditions.
Risk Assessment
The organization faces the risk of unauthorized control over the device, potentially leading to data confidentiality and integrity breaches and further network attacks.
Recommendation
Immediately update UniFi OS and UniFi Protect Application to the latest patched version. Restrict network access to devices and enforce the principle of least privilege.
