CVE-2026-34909: A malicious actor with access to the network could exploit a Path Traversal vulnerability found in UniFi OS devices to access files on the u
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Now (action score 90/100)
- CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (Jun 23, 2026). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Jun 26, 2026.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 68% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 99.3% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: Ubiquiti Inc EFG 5.1.12; Ubiquiti Inc ENVR 5.1.12; Ubiquiti Inc ENVR-Core 5.1.12.
Patch today or shut off access. Upgrade to Ubiquiti Inc EFG 5.1.12; Ubiquiti Inc ENVR 5.1.12; Ubiquiti Inc ENVR-Core 5.1.12 or later.
