Subject: Re: [FD] Critical Vulnerability in Ubiquiti UniFi

Hi Carlos, 

you are correct that mongo is bound to 127.0.0.1 only. But you are able to get it remote if you are using the Unify Controller Software. 

So the db gets tunneled to your device. 

Test environment: 
1. I have configured the AP to our network. 
2. I have removed every piece of software for configuring the ap. 
3. I have installed the Unify Manager (for Mac 5.2.7.)
4. I’m able to connect to the database via 127.0.0.1 

Network topology: 
The access point is cabled to a AVM FritzBox. Our test client is connected via W-Lan provided by FritzBox - so there is no direct connection to the ap.  


Best regards
Tim Schughart
