CVE-2026-4157: CWE-78: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') in ChargePoint Home Flex
ChargePoint Home Flex revssh Service Command Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows network-adjacent attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of ChargePoint Home Flex devices. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the handling of OCPP messages. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of root. Was ZDI-CAN-26338.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability exists in the revssh service of ChargePoint Home Flex devices, specifically in the processing of OCPP messages. Due to improper neutralization of special elements in user-supplied input, an attacker can inject OS commands that are executed with root privileges. The flaw does not require authentication and can be triggered by a network-adjacent attacker. The CVSS 3.0 base score is 7.5, reflecting high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No official fix or vendor advisory has been published yet.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation results in remote code execution with root privileges on affected ChargePoint Home Flex devices, potentially allowing full system compromise. Confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the device are all impacted. The vulnerability can be exploited without authentication by an attacker on the same network segment. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict network access to the affected device to trusted sources only and monitor for unusual activity. Avoid exposing the device to untrusted networks. No official mitigation or temporary fix has been published by the vendor.
