CVE-2026-8985Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated command execution via unneutralized URL parameter

Published Jul 21, 2026 · Updated Jul 21, 2026

OS command injection in Autel MaxiCharger AC Single Charger firmware through 1.03.51 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands. The TCP port 9002 /test endpoint incorporates the attacker-controlled url parameter into an operating system command without neutralization. The endpoint requires no authentication or user interaction, exposing charger data, configuration, and service availability to command-level compromise.
