Description

EVerest is an EV charging software stack. Prior to version 2026.02.0, when WithdrawAuthorization is processed before the TransactionStarted event, AuthHandler determines transaction_active=false and only calls withdraw_authorization_callback. This path ultimately calls Charger::deauthorize(), but no actual stop (StopTransaction) occurs in the Charging state. As a result, authorization withdrawal can be defeated by timing, allowing charging to continue. Version 2026.02.0 contains a patch.

How this vulnerability can be exploited

This issue can be reached over the network, attack complexity is high, an attacker needs administrative privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality none, integrity high, availability low.

CVSS metrics in full

The score comes from this vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L

  • Attack vector: Network — reachable from anywhere that can route to the service.
  • Attack complexity: High — the attacker first has to win a race, learn a secret or otherwise prepare the target.
  • Privileges required: High — administrative rights are needed first.
  • User interaction: None — nobody has to be tricked into anything.
  • Scope: Unchanged — the damage stays inside the vulnerable component.
  • Confidentiality impact: None.
  • Integrity impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
  • Availability impact: Low — limited, and the attacker does not choose what is affected.
