Critical CVSS 9.4
CVE-2026-8987
NVD analysis in progress
Autel Maxi Charger Single firmware through V1.03.51 contains a heap-based buffer overflow in the set_ap_param command handled by the /localcfg endpoint. An authenticated attacker can supply oversized input, resulting in denial of service and potentially arbitrary code execution.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, with an ordinary user account and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
- Weakness
- A heap overflow corrupts allocator structures and can lead to code execution.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
