Delta UFC500: Use of Default Credentials
CVE-2026-22105 is a high-severity use of default credentials vulnerability in Delta UFC500 from Delta Electronics, with a CVSS 4.0 base score of 8.7 out of 10. It can be exploited from the same local network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists versions 2.4.18, 4.4.1 as the first without the flaw, so updating Delta UFC500 to one of those releases or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.19% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

Official description
Delta UFC500 charging stations derive the default credentials of the Service account from character positions of the device serial number. An unauthenticated attacker with adjacent network access can reconstruct the resulting password, or exhaust the keyspace, and log in to read and change sensitive settings such as the OCPP backend.

The underlying weakness: Use of Default Credentials
The product uses default credentials (such as passwords or cryptographic keys) for potentially critical functionality.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Prohibit use of default, hard-coded, or other values that do not vary for each installation of the product - especially for separate organizations.
- Force the administrator to change the credential upon installation.
- The product administrator could change the defaults upon installation or during operation.
Timeline
- CVE record published.
- CISA published its SSVC assessment (exploitation: none, automatable: no, technical impact: total).
