CVE-2026-50746 is a critical improper access control vulnerability in the Ubiquiti UniFi Connect Application. The flaw affects UniFi Connect Application version 3.4.16 and earlier and allows a malicious actor with network access to reach functionality that can be abused for command injection on the underlying host device. Available reporting characterizes the issue as low complexity, requiring no user interaction, and in some accounts as exploitable without authentication from a network-adjacent position. Successful exploitation can result in execution of attacker-controlled commands on the host system.
