Last modified
CVE-2019-16889 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.5/10 on the CVSS scale. Ubiquiti EdgeMAX devices before 2.0.3 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) because *.cache files in /var/run/beaker/container_file/ are created when providing a valid length payload of 249 characters or fewer to the beaker.session.id cookie in a GET header. The attacker can use a long series of unique session IDs.. EPSS estimates a 5.09% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
