CVE-2024-23920Known exploitation

Unauthenticated root code execution via onboardee access control

Published Jan 31, 2025 · Updated Jul 1, 2025

Improper access control in ChargePoint Home Flex all versions allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code as root over an adjacent network. The flaw is in the onboardee module, but ZDI has not published which protected operation or attacker-controlled request bypasses its access checks. Adjacent-network reachability is required, but authentication and user interaction are not; successful exploitation grants root control of the charger.
