It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-42028 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ubiquiti Inc UniFi Network Application. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42028/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42028/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-42028","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42028/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-42028","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jhcf-hv78-23rq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"UniFi Network Server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local user can escalate privileges to execute high-privilege actions on the UniFi Network Server, requiring an upgrade to mitigate.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hackerone","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-276","name":"Incorrect Default Permissions"}],"description":"A Local privilege escalation vulnerability found in a Self-Hosted UniFi Network Server with UniFi Network Application (Version 8.4.62 and earlier) allows a malicious actor with a local operational system user to execute high privilege actions on UniFi Network Server.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in UniFi Network Application","id":"CVE-2024-42028","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-42029"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Weak cryptography in Mobile","id":"CVE-2024-42027"},"products":["UniFi Network Application"],"published":"2024-10-28","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-10-28","vendors":["Ubiquiti Inc"]},"summary":"A local user can escalate privileges to execute high-privilege actions on the UniFi Network Server, requiring an upgrade to mitigate.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42028/"}
