WebSocket endpoints lack proper authentication mechanisms, enabling attackers to perform unauthorized station impersonation and manipulate data sent to the backend. An unauthenticated attacker can connect to the OCPP WebSocket endpoint using a known or discovered charging station identifier, then issue or receive OCPP commands as a legitimate charger. Given that no authentication is required, this can lead to privilege escalation, unauthorized control of charging infrastructure, and corruption of charging network data reported to the backend.

Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote

  • Monitor for unauthenticated WebSocket connections to OCPP endpoints using charging station identifiers — no credentials are required to connect and issue OCPP commands
  • Alert on multiple simultaneous WebSocket sessions sharing the same charging station session identifier, which indicates session hijacking or shadowing activity
  • Detect high-rate authentication attempts against the OCPP WebSocket API endpoint, which has no rate limiting and is susceptible to brute-force and DoS attacks
  • ·All versions of EV2GO ev2go.io are affected; there is no patched version available as the vendor did not respond to CISA coordination — no version-based filtering is possible
  • ·Charging station authentication identifiers are publicly accessible via web-based mapping platforms, meaning attackers can trivially enumerate valid station IDs to use in exploitation
  • ·No known public exploitation has been reported to CISA at time of advisory publication
