CVE-2024-43661

9.8 · CRITICAL
Published Jan 9, 2025 CWE-121 EPSS 0.50% (41th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2024-43661 is a critical-severity vulnerability. It was published on January 9, 2025 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 (CRITICAL).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8, rated CRITICAL. It can be exploited remotely over the network. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical Description

The <redacted>.so library, which is used by <redacted>, is

vulnerable to a buffer overflow in the code that handles the deletion

of certificates. This buffer overflow can be triggered by providing a

long file path to the <redacted> action of the <redacted>.exe CGI binary or

to the <redacted>.sh CGI script. This binary or script will write this

file path to <redacted>, which is then

read by <redacted>.so

This issue affects Iocharger firmware for AC models before version 24120701.

Likelihood: Moderate – An attacker will have to find this exploit by

either obtaining the binaries involved in this vulnerability, or by trial

and error. Furthermore, the attacker will need a (low privilege)

account to gain access to the <redacted>.exe CGI binary or <redacted>.sh

script to trigger the vulnerability, or convince a user with such access

send an HTTP request that triggers it.

Impact: High – The <redacted> process, which we assume is

responsible for OCPP communication, will keep crashing after
