AI-suggested
Organizations should immediately upgrade to EVerest everest-core version 2026.02.0 or later, which contains the patch addressing this authorization flaw. If you cannot patch yet, operators should implement additional monitoring of transaction states to detect anomalies where stop commands do not result in session termination. Network segmentation and strict access controls can limit exposure to the vulnerable RemoteStop processing interface. Logging and alerting on authorization state changes during charging sessions can help identify exploitation attempts. Additionally, conducting thorough testing of remote command handling logic in EV charging software is recommended to prevent similar authorization issues. Vendors should consider implementing stronger state validation and timeout mechanisms to handle delayed authorization responses safely.
Description
EVerest is an EV charging software stack. Prior to version 2026.02.0, during RemoteStop processing, a delayed authorization response restores `authorized` back to true, defeating the `stop_transaction()` call condition on PowerOff events. As a result, the transaction can remain open even after a remote stop. Version 2026.02.0 contains a patch.
