Likely Mitigating ControlsAI
Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
This control directly enforces limits on consecutive invalid logon attempts and automatic response (e.g., lockout) to prevent brute-force exploitation of authentication mechanisms.
Specific conditions can include excessive failed attempts, triggering stronger authentication that restricts brute-force exploitation.
MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI
Why these techniques?
Lack of rate limiting on auth requests directly enables brute-force credential access (T1110) and application exhaustion DoS via flooding (T1499.003).
NVD Description
The WebSocket Application Programming Interface lacks restrictions on the number of authentication requests. This absence of rate limiting may allow an attacker to conduct denial-of-service attacks by suppressing or mis-routing legitimate charger telemetry, or conduct brute-force attacks to gain unauthorized…

Deeper analysisAI
CVE-2026-20882, published on 2026-03-06, is a vulnerability in the WebSocket Application Programming Interface that lacks restrictions on the number of authentication requests due to the absence of rate limiting. This flaw, mapped to CWE-307 (Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts) and scored 7.5 under CVSS v3.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H), affects components handling charger telemetry in operational technology environments.
Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability over the network with low complexity and no user interaction. Successful exploitation enables denial-of-service attacks by flooding the interface with authentication requests, suppressing or mis-routing legitimate charger telemetry data, or facilitates brute-force attacks to achieve unauthorized access.
Mitigation guidance is detailed in related advisories, including CISA ICSA-26-062-06 (https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/ics-advisories/icsa-26-062-06), the corresponding CSAF JSON file (https://github.com/cisagov/CSAF/blob/develop/csaf_files/OT/white/2026/icsa-26-062-06.json), and vendor support resources such as https://mobiliti.hu/emobilitas/ugyfeltamogatas/ugyfelszolgalat.
