3Description
The WebSocket Application Programming Interface lacks restrictions on the number of authentication requests. This absence of rate limiting may allow an attacker to conduct denial-of-service attacks by suppressing or mis-routing legitimate charger telemetry, or conduct brute-force attacks to gain unauthorized access.
Analysis
The CTEK ChargePortal WebSocket API contains a critical rate limiting vulnerability that permits unlimited authentication attempts. This flaw enables attackers to either launch denial-of-service attacks by overwhelming the system with authentication requests that suppress legitimate charger telemetry data, or conduct brute-force attacks to compromise user credentials and gain unauthorized system access. …
