UniFi Network Controller before version 5.10.22 and 5.11.x before 5.11.18 contains an improper certificate verification vulnerability that allows adjacent network attackers to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks by presenting a false SSL certificate during SMTP connections. Attackers can intercept SMTP traffic and obtain credentials by exploiting the insecure SSL host verification mechanism in the SMTP certificate validation process.

Ubiquiti UniFi Network Controller prior to 5.10.12 (excluding 5.6.42), UAP FW prior to 4.0.6, UAP-AC, UAP-AC v2, and UAP-AC Outdoor FW prior to 3.8.17, USW FW prior to 4.0.6, USG FW prior to 4.4.34 uses AES-CBC encryption for device-to-controller communication, which contains cryptographic weaknesses that allow attackers to recover encryption keys from captured traffic. Attackers with adjacent network access can capture sufficient encrypted traffic and exploit AES-CBC mode vulnerabilities to derive the encryption keys, enabling unauthorized control and management of network devices.
