Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: Low: The attacker is authorized with (i.e., requires) privileges that provide basic user capabilities that could normally affect only settings and files owned by a user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges may have the ability to cause an impact only to non-sensitive resources.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: High: There is a total loss of integrity, or a complete loss of protection. For example, the attacker is able to modify any/all files protected by the impacted component. Alternatively, only some files can be modified, but malicious modification would present a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.
Availability: High: There is total loss of availability, resulting in the attacker being able to fully deny access to resources in the impacted component; this loss is either sustained (while the attacker continues to deliver the attack) or persistent (the condition persists even after the attack has completed). Alternatively, the attacker has the ability to deny some availability, but the loss of availability presents a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component (e.g., the attacker cannot disrupt existing connections, but can prevent new connections; the attacker can repeatedly exploit a vulnerability that, in each instance of a successful attack, leaks a only small amount of memory, but after repeated exploitation causes a service to become completely unavailable).

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-26.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

European organizations should immediately assess their deployment of Honding Technology Smart Parking Management System version 1.0 and implement compensating controls until an official patch is available. Specific recommendations include: 1) Restrict network access to the management interfaces of the parking system using network segmentation and firewall rules to limit exposure to trusted administrative networks only. 2) Enforce strong authentication and monitoring for all user accounts, especially those with elevated privileges, to detect suspicious account creation or privilege escalation activities. 3) Conduct thorough access reviews and remove unnecessary user privileges to minimize the number of users with regular access. 4) Implement application-layer access control proxies or web application firewalls (WAFs) that can detect and block unauthorized attempts to access administrative functions. 5) Monitor system logs for anomalous activities related to account creation and login events. 6) Engage with Honding Technology to obtain information on patches or updates addressing this vulnerability and plan for prompt deployment once available. 7) Consider isolating the affected system from critical networks until the vulnerability is remediated to reduce risk exposure.

Description

Smart Parking Management System from Honding Technology has a Missing Authorization vulnerability, allowing remote attackers with regular privileges to access a specific functionality to create administrator accounts, and subsequently log into the system using those accounts.

Impact

For European organizations deploying Honding Technology's Smart Parking Management System version 1.0, this vulnerability poses a significant risk. Successful exploitation can lead to unauthorized administrative access, enabling attackers to manipulate parking management operations, alter configurations, disable security controls, or disrupt service availability. This could result in operational downtime, financial losses, and reputational damage. Additionally, unauthorized access to administrative functions may expose sensitive data such as user information, payment details, or location data, raising privacy concerns under GDPR regulations. The ability to create administrator accounts remotely also increases the risk of persistent unauthorized access and lateral movement within the organization's network. Given the critical role of smart parking systems in urban infrastructure, exploitation could impact public services and critical infrastructure, especially in smart city environments. The lack of known exploits currently reduces immediate risk, but the high severity and ease of exploitation warrant urgent attention.

The product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action.
Architecture and Design
Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries.
Architecture and Design
Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records.
Architecture and Design · Libraries or Frameworks
Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
