I've used this/these Ubiquiti vulnerabilities as examples of the lack of CVE 
IDs leading to lack of awareness of the need to take action.  Here's 
the message I sent Ubiquiti this week, no response from them yet.

As a CNA of sometimes last resort, CERT/CC is planning to submit one (or 
two) CVE IDs to cover these vulnerabilities.  I think the second 
(CVE-2016-yyyy) is pretty clear.


I'm bad at reading email, Ubiquiti answered me on 8/21 and says they 
are all the same single vulnerability.  So either CERT/CC or Ubiquiti 
will submit a CVE entry.

Hello,

We're tracking down missing CVE IDs for one or two older Ubiquiti 
vulnerabilities.  I believe these are distinct vulnerabilities, but 
can't really tell, so I thought I'd ask directly.


CVE-2015-xxxx

Fixed in 5.5.11.28002

CVE-2016-yyyy

Fixed in 5.6.5.29033

Does this grouping seem right?

Or, since the HackerOne report was filed on 2015-07-01, is the first 
Ubiquiti blog post on 2015-07-17 talking about the same vulnerability?

Aside from updating the CVE catalog, there's a thread I'm trying to 
investigate here.  Researcher used bug bounty (good), vendor fixed bug 
(good), but users didn't notice/act (bad), possibly due to the lack of CVE 
ID.

Regards,
