CVE-2025-54816
CWE-306Published: January 22, 2026· Updated: Jun 17, 2026
Official Description
This vulnerability occurs when a WebSocket endpoint does not enforce
proper authentication mechanisms, allowing unauthorized users to
establish connections. As a result, attackers can exploit this weakness
to gain unauthorized access to sensitive data or perform unauthorized
actions. Given that no authentication is required, this can lead to
privilege escalation and potentially compromise the security of the
entire system.
Risk Analysis
EVMapa contains a WebSocket endpoint that lacks authentication, allowing unauthorized users to establish connections. This can lead to privilege escalation and unauthorized access to sensitive data. The critical CVSS score indicates a high risk of total system compromise.
No public exploit is known, and the vulnerability is not in the CISA KEV. It is remotely exploitable.
Enforce robust authentication mechanisms on all WebSocket endpoints. Restrict access to authorized users only.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2025-54816 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 9.8.
