WebSocket Authentication Bypass
2026-03-06
WebSocket auth bypass — same industrial platform family.
Unauthenticated remote attackers can impersonate electric vehicle charging stations in Everon's api.everon.io platform via unprotected OCPP WebSocket endpoints. By connecting with a known or discovered station identifier, attackers gain full control to issue OCPP commands as legitimate chargers, manipulate charging session data, escalate privileges within the charging network infrastructure, and corrupt backend telemetry. CISA ICS-CERT reports this vulnerability affecting critical EV charging infrastructure. Despite 9.3 CVSS score indicating critical severity, EPSS score of 0.09% (25th percentile) suggests exploitation requires specialized knowledge of OCPP protocol and charging network architecture rather than mass automated scanning.
