    CVE-2026-95102

    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. View CVE Details

    Remediations
    MitigationMonta states that they are actively working to increase adoption of authenticated connections across their network and to deprecate unauthenticated access on a rolling basis. Monta states that they provide support for OCPP 1.6 Security Profile 2 (HTTP Basic Auth with TLS) and encourage operators to enable it.
    MitigationMonta states that they have implemented rate limiting and automated connection throttling at the WebSocket layer. Connections exhibiting abusive patterns, including rapid reconnection, ID brute-forcing behavior, or excessive command volume, are automatically identified and blocked. MitigationMonta states that their platform handles duplicate connection attempts per the OCPP specification, where a new authenticated connection supersedes an existing session for the same station ID.

    CVE-2026-97363

    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 or brute-force attacks to gain unauthorized access.

    CVE-2026-97212

    The WebSocket backend uses charging station identifiers to uniquely associate sessions but allows multiple endpoints to connect using the same session identifier. This implementation results in predictable session identifiers. This vulnerability may allow unauthorized users to authenticate as other users or enable a malicious actor to cause a denial-of-service condition by overwhelming the backend with valid session requests.

    Recommended Practices
    CISA recommends users take defensive measures to minimize the risk of exploitation of these vulnerabilities.

    Minimize network exposure for all control system devices and/or systems, ensuring they are not accessible from the Internet. Locate control system networks and remote devices behind firewalls and isolating them from business networks. When remote access is required, use more secure methods, such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), recognizing VPNs may have vulnerabilities and should be updated to the most current version available. Also recognize VPN is only as secure as the connected devices.

    CISA reminds organizations to perform proper impact analysis and risk assessment prior to deploying defensive measures. CISA also provides a section for control systems security recommended practices
    on the ICS webpage on cisa.gov/ics. Several CISA products detailing cyber defense best practices are available for reading and download, including Improving Industrial Control Systems Cybersecurity with Defense-in-Depth Strategies.
    CISA encourages organizations to implement recommended cybersecurity strategies for proactive defense of ICS assets. Additional mitigation guidance and recommended practices are publicly available on the ICS webpage at cisa.gov/ics in the technical information paper, ICS-TIP-12-146-01B--Targeted Cyber Intrusion Detection and Mitigation
    Strategies.
    Organizations observing suspected malicious activity should follow established internal procedures and report findings to CISA for tracking and correlation against other incidents.
    No known public exploitation specifically targeting these vulnerabilities has been reported to CISA at this time.
