Picostation, etc ...) with the following firmware versions:

    802.11 products - AirOS v3.6.1/v4.0 (previous versions are not affected)
    AirMax products- AirOS v5.x (all versions)

This vulnerability allows access to the computer without a password and a
virus called Skynet can be installed in the Ubiquiti

machine, this virus acts sending messages on the traffic generated through
the port: 80 (http://), redirecting traffic to certain websites

and saturating wireless device memory, which causes unexpected reboots.

How is the virus?

The virus is a Linux script that is installed in a hidden directory and
after a reboot, begins to act.
