AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-8985 is an OS command injection vulnerability affecting Autel Maxi Charger Single firmware through version V1.03.51. The vulnerability exists in the /test endpoint exposed on TCP port 9002, where an unauthenticated attacker can inject and execute arbitrary OS commands by manipulating a URL parameter. This vulnerability is classified under CWE-78 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command). The CVSS 3.1 base score is 9.8, reflecting its critical impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary operating system commands on the affected device, potentially leading to full system compromise, data loss, or disruption of service. The vulnerability impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability with a critical severity rating.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict network access to TCP port 9002 to trusted users only and monitor for unusual activity targeting the /test endpoint. Avoid exposing the vulnerable endpoint to untrusted networks.
