CVE-2026-29044: EVerest: Charging Continues When WithdrawAuthorization Is Processed Before TransactionStarted
- Severity: medium (CVSS 6.5 v3.1)
- Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
- EPSS: 0.3% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days

- Weakness: CWE-863
Description
EVerest is an EV charging software stack. Prior to version 2026.02.0, when WithdrawAuthorization is processed before the TransactionStarted event, AuthHandler determines `transaction_active=false` and only calls `withdraw_authorization_callback`. This path ultimately calls `Charger::deauthorize()`, but no actual stop (StopTransaction) occurs in the Charging state. As a result, authorization withdrawal can be defeated by timing, allowing charging to continue. Version 2026.02.0 contains a patch.
