Delta UFC500: Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality
CVE-2026-22110 is a high-severity missing authentication for critical functionality 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 0.24% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update Delta UFC500 to 2.4.18 or 4.4.1, whichever matches your release line, or a later version.
Affected products and versions
| Vendor | Product | Affected versions | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|
| Delta Electronics | Delta UFC500 | before 2.4.18; before 4.4.1 | 2.4.18, 4.4.1 |

Official description
The web server does not check authentication on POST or PUT. An unauthenticated attacker can reboot the charger; by brute-forcing the configid, they can also set the service password and then change any setting.

The underlying weakness: Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality
The product does not perform any authentication for functionality that requires a provable user identity or consumes a significant amount of resources.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- For any security checks that are performed on the client side, ensure that these checks are duplicated on the server side, in order to avoid CWE-602. Attackers can bypass the client-side checks by modifying values after the checks have been performed, or by changing the client to remove the client-side checks entirely. Then, these modified values would be submitted to the server.
- Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid. For example, consider using libraries with authentication capabilities such as OpenSSL or the ESAPI Authenticator.
- When storing data in the cloud (e.g., S3 buckets, Azure blobs, Google Cloud Storage, etc.), use the provider's controls to require strong authentication for users who should be allowed to access the data.
