7.4 · HIGHOverview
CVE-2025-68136 is a high-severity vulnerability affecting linuxfoundation everest. It was published on January 21, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.4 (HIGH).
This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.4, rated HIGH. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.
Technical Description
EVerest is an EV charging software stack. Prior to version 2025.10.0, once the module receives a SDP request, it creates a whole new set of objects like `Session`, `IConnection` which open new TCP socket for the ISO15118-20 communications and registers callbacks for the created file descriptor, without closing and destroying the previous ones. Previous `Session` is not saved and the usage of an `unique_ptr` is lost, destroying connection data. Latter, if the used socket and therefore file descriptor is not the last one, it will lead to a null pointer dereference. Version 2025.10.0 fixes the issue.
Remediation
Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from linuxfoundation. Update everest to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
