CVE-2025-23164Network attack vector

Livestream disclosure via unrevoked share tokens

Published May 19, 2025 · Updated May 19, 2025

Improper access control in Ubiquiti UniFi Protect Application 5.3.41 and earlier allows remote attackers to retain livestream access. The Share Livestream access-token path fails to revoke an issued token when its link is disabled, so later requests continue to authorize the stream. Exploitation requires possession of a previously issued link; the reported consequence is continued viewing of that camera feed, not modification or service interruption.
