Vulnerability Data

EVerest is an EV charging software stack. Versions prior to 2026.02.0 have a data race leading to possible `std::map<std::queue>` corruption. The trigger is CSMS GetLog/UpdateFirmware request (network) with an EVSE fault event (physical). This results in TSAN reports concurrent access…

(data race) to `event_queue`. Version 2026.2.0 contains a patch.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
Why these techniques?

Data race in network-exposed EV charging stack (triggered by CSMS requests) directly enables remote exploitation of public-facing application.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Directly addresses the unpatched data race by requiring timely application of the vendor fix in 2026.02.0 that eliminates concurrent access to event_queue.

prevent

Memory protection mechanisms can block or contain corruption of the std::map<std::queue> structures caused by the race between CSMS requests and EVSE events.

detect

Integrity verification of executing software can detect unauthorized modification or corruption resulting from the CWE-362 race condition.

Secure SDLC practices directly require proper synchronization primitives and concurrency testing that prevent race conditions.

detects

Security testing can detect race conditions, but does not prevent them at design or coding time.

prevents

Secure SDLC mandates concurrency controls and synchronization primitives that directly prevent race conditions.

prevents

Application security requirements can specify thread-safety and locking rules, but do not prescribe implementation details.

prevents

Secure architecture principles require proper synchronization and resource isolation, addressing the root cause of CWE-362.

prevents

Secure coding standards explicitly forbid unsafe concurrent access patterns and mandate atomic operations or locks.

none

Change management reduces introduction of concurrency bugs during updates, yet does not address the weakness itself.
