CVE-2026-4155: CWE-540: Inclusion of Sensitive Information in Source Code in ChargePoint Home Flex
CVE-2026-4155 is a high-severity vulnerability in ChargePoint Home Flex charging stations version 5.5.4.13. It involves the inclusion of a secret cryptographic seed value within the genpw script, which allows remote attackers to disclose sensitive information without authentication. This information disclosure can lead to further compromise by revealing stored credentials. No official patch or remediation level has been provided yet, and no known exploits are reported in the wild.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CVE-2026-4155) affects ChargePoint Home Flex charging stations, specifically version 5.5.4.13. The flaw is due to the inclusion of sensitive cryptographic seed data within the genpw script, enabling remote attackers to extract this secret information without needing any authentication. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-540 (Inclusion of Sensitive Information in Source Code) and has a CVSS v3.0 base score of 7.5, indicating high severity. The disclosure of this secret seed can lead to exposure of stored credentials and potential further compromise of the affected device.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive cryptographic seed information embedded in the source code, leading to disclosure of stored credentials. This compromises confidentiality but does not impact integrity or availability directly. The vulnerability requires no authentication and can be exploited remotely, increasing risk.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official fix or remediation level is provided, users should monitor ChargePoint advisories for updates. Until a patch is available, restrict network access to affected devices where possible to reduce exposure.
