CVE-2026-40702
WebSocket endpoints lack proper authentication mechanisms, enabling attackers to impersonate charging stations.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.65%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
WebSocket endpoints lack proper authentication mechanisms, enabling attackers to impersonate charging stations. As a result, attackers can exploit this weakness to gain unauthorized access to sensitive data or perform unauthorized actions. Given that no authentication is required, this can lead to privilege escalation and potentially compromise the security of the entire system.
