The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication.

The vulnerability exists due to inadequate encryption strength within the implementation of the OCPP protocol. A remote attacker on the local network can bypass authentication and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


6) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26000)

CWE-ID: CWE-843 - Type confusion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error within the handling of JSON-encoded arrays. A remote attacker on the local network can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger a type confusion error and gain unauthorized access to sensitive information on the system.


7) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26003)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the parsing of the HomePlug Green PHY Protocol. A remote attacker in the local network can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.


8) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26005)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the handling of ClientSession objects in the CharxControllerAgent service. A remote attacker on the local network can execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


9) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-26001)
