CVE-2026-25945
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 · uneditedThe 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 by suppressing or mis-routing legitimate charger telemetry, or conduct brute-force attacks to gain unauthorized access.
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 confidenceThe WebSocket API in this system lacks rate limiting on authentication requests, enabling attackers to perform unlimited authentication attempts. This vulnerability affects charger telemetry systems and can be exploited to conduct brute-force attacks for unauthorized access or denial-of-service attacks that disrupt legitimate charger communications.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm Ev2go Ev2go.io is in useInventory your systems for Ev2go Ev2go.io charger telemetry components. Check software inventory, installed applications, or service documentation for references to Ev2go or Ev2go.io.Affected if The product Ev2go Ev2go.io is deployed in your environment.
-
Identify WebSocket endpointsReview your application or API documentation, or perform network traffic analysis to identify WebSocket endpoints used by the Ev2go system. Look for WS:// or WSS:// connections typically used for telemetry communication.Affected if WebSocket connections are established to Ev2go Ev2go.io services.
-
Locate WebSocket authentication endpointExamine the WebSocket handshake or authentication flow in your application code, API specifications, or network captures. Identify the specific path or message used for authenticating to the WebSocket API.Affected if A WebSocket authentication endpoint exists that accepts credentials.
-
Test for rate limiting on authenticationSend multiple authentication requests via WebSocket in quick succession (e.g., 10-20 attempts in under a minute). Observe whether the system throttles, blocks, or returns rate-limit error responses, or if it accepts all attempts without restriction.Affected if The system accepts unlimited authentication attempts without throttling or blocking after multiple rapid requests.
-
Review authentication logs for anomaliesExamine application logs, security logs, or WebSocket server logs for the Ev2go system. Look for patterns of repeated failed authentication attempts from a single source that were not blocked or rate-limited.Affected if Logs show repeated authentication attempts from a single source that were not mitigated by the system.
Your environment is affected if Ev2go Ev2go.io is deployed and the WebSocket authentication endpoint accepts unlimited rapid requests without imposing rate limits, lockouts, or throttling.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedImplement rate limiting on WebSocket authentication endpoints with exponential backoff and account lockout mechanisms to prevent brute-force attacks, combined with WebSocket-level connection limits and monitoring for anomalous authentication patterns.
- Implement rate limiting on the WebSocket API to restrict authentication requests (e.g., limit to 5-10 attempts per minute per IP address)
- Configure account lockout mechanisms after a defined number of failed authentication attempts (e.g., lock for 15-30 minutes after 5 failed attempts)
- Add request throttling at the load balancer or reverse proxy level for WebSocket connections
- Implement monitoring and alerting for anomalous authentication patterns on the WebSocket endpoint
- Consider implementing progressive delays (exponential backoff) between authentication attempts
- Enable detailed logging of authentication failures for security analysis and incident response
