CVE-2026-25113: SWITCH EV swtchenergy.com Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts

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 access.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

CVE-2026-25113 affects SWITCH EV’s swtchenergy.com WebSocket API. It does not limit repeated authentication attempts, which could let an internet attacker overload authentication handling, disrupt charger telemetry, or attempt password guessing. The sources rate it high severity, but do not state that it is being actively exploited.

Executive priority

Treat as a high-priority operational technology exposure if SWITCH EV supports business-critical charging. The main business risk is service disruption or unreliable charger telemetry. Prioritize vendor confirmation, monitoring, and remediation tracking, especially for public or revenue-generating charging operations.

Technical view

The issue is CWE-307: improper restriction of excessive authentication attempts. CVSS 4.0 is 8.7, network-accessible, low complexity, no privileges or user interaction required, with high availability impact. The described impact is denial of service through suppressed or mis-routed charger telemetry, plus possible brute-force unauthorized access.

Likely exposure

Exposure is most relevant to organizations using SWITCH EV’s swtchenergy.com service for EV charging operations. Organizations not using this service are not indicated as affected. The bundle lists all versions of swtchenergy.com as affected, but does not identify customer-controlled components or patch levels.

Exploitation context

The provided sources do not report active exploitation, and the CVE is not marked in CISA KEV. Abuse would target repeated authentication attempts against the WebSocket API, with potential operational impact to charger telemetry and possible account compromise risk.

Researcher notes

Scope and remediation details are limited in the provided bundle. It names SWITCH EV swtchenergy.com, all versions, CWE-307, and CVSS 8.7. No fixed version, patch, workaround, exploit report, or KEV listing is provided. Avoid assuming on-premises patchability because the affected asset appears service-oriented.

Mitigation direction

  • Review the CISA advisory and SWITCH EV guidance for official remediation instructions.
  • Contact SWITCH EV support for service-side mitigation or patch status.
  • Monitor authentication failures and charger telemetry gaps for abnormal spikes.
  • Restrict API or administrative access to trusted networks where supported.
  • Use strong, unique credentials for SWITCH EV-related accounts.

Validation and detection

  • Confirm whether the organization uses SWITCH EV swtchenergy.com services.
  • Identify business processes dependent on SWITCH EV charger telemetry.
  • Check logs for unusual authentication attempt volume or telemetry disruptions.
  • Verify current vendor guidance against the CISA advisory.
  • Document whether mitigations are vendor-managed or customer-configurable.
