If you read the original post, the they noticed a breach when someone put an "unknown" VM on their server infrastructure. The attackers also got signing keys for firmware.
So even if you run a local controller, I see two very serious vectors:
1. The "Ubiquiti account signin" functionality - you probably had it off, but I'd like a confirmation that it doesn't keep a backdoor open anyway.
2. Having a malicious firmware update put on the servers. If it took months for someone to find the vulnerability, who knows how long the servers could push a compromised controller/firmware builds for the hardware.
- elric 6y agoThe self-hosted controller UI uses your browser to fetch crap from UI.com. Mine just launched a request to net-fe-static-assets.network-controller.svc.ui.com/videos/empty, which I'm sure is perfectly reasonable...I can think of a thousand legit reasons why my network controller would need to load, erhm, an empty video. sigh I wish I could trust them.
