Authentication Bypass in UgCS Server by UGCS
CVE-2026-59104
What is CVE-2026-59104?
The UgCS server prior to version 6.2 is vulnerable to an authentication bypass through its HCI protocol login handler, which is accessible on TCP port 3334. In scenarios where the user database is configured with a single user (typical of default installations), a malformed LoginRequest with empty userLogin and userPassword fields may be misinterpreted as a valid request for the existing user. As a result, an attacker can exploit this loophole to gain unauthorized access and initiate privileged commands, including the control of connected drones and the uploading of flight routes. This vulnerability poses a significant risk due to the default non-encrypted state of the service, allowing exploitation by any remote party with network access.
Affected Version(s)
UgCS Windows 0 < 6.2
