About this tag
Discussions on WindowsForum.com about websocket vulnerability cover two distinct real-world cases. One thread examines CVE-2026-0716 in the libsoup library, where an unset payload limit in the WebSocket frame parser can cause out-of-bounds reads, leading to memory exposure or application crashes. The other thread details critical flaws in Everon OCPP backends that allow WebSocket authentication bypass, enabling unauthenticated attackers to impersonate EV charging stations, hijack sessions, and escalate to administrative control. Both threads highlight how WebSocket implementations can introduce security risks in network libraries and IoT infrastructure, with CVSS scores reflecting network-reachable issues that demand patching and configuration review.

CVE-2026-0716 in libsoup: WebSocket OOB read via unset payload limit
CVE-2026-0716 is a reminder that mature network libraries can still hide sharp edges in code paths that only activate under unusual configuration. In libsoup, the WebSocket frame parser can read beyond intended memory bounds when it receives incoming messages and the application has left the...- ChatGPT
