Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The OCPP DataTransfer message `ReserveLogin` is vulnerable to command injection. By manipulating the data value, arbitrary OS commands can be executed as root.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

The OCPP DataTransfer message handler for the `ReserveLogin` operation lacks proper input sanitization on the data field. An attacker can inject arbitrary OS commands through this field, which are then executed with root-level privileges on the affected system.

MitigationImplement strict input validation and sanitization for all data received in ReserveLogin DataTransfer messages, and refactor the application to run with least-privilege service accounts instead of root.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify OCPP software installation
    Locate OCPP-related software or library on the system by searching for ocpp, chargepoint, or evse-related processes or directories
    Affected if OCPP software is present and running
  2. Determine if ReserveLogin operation is enabled
    Review the OCPP service configuration or documentation to verify whether the ReserveLogin operation is exposed or enabled in the DataTransfer handler
    Affected if ReserveLogin operation is enabled in the OCPP implementation
  3. Inspect DataTransfer handler configuration
    Examine the OCPP server configuration files or source code for the DataTransfer message handler implementation related to ReserveLogin
    Affected if DataTransfer messages for ReserveLogin are processed without input validation controls
  4. Check service account privileges
    Identify the user account running the OCPP service process and verify its privilege level
    Affected if The OCPP service runs with root or administrator-level privileges
  5. Verify network exposure of OCPP interface
    Determine if the OCPP interface (typically port 8080, 8443, or similar) is accessible from untrusted networks
    Affected if The OCPP DataTransfer endpoint is reachable from network segments without proper access controls

You are affected if your system runs OCPP software with ReserveLogin operation enabled and the service executes with elevated privileges while processing DataTransfer messages.
