There have been EV charge points in the UK running Linux since at least 2009. I know, because I put it in them.

Do you think they've been updated for security bugs since then?

There was certainly a remote update process for the whole OS, yes, and it was used. Those particular charge points have long since been replaced with newer models about which I know little.

I'm very glad to hear they did do updates. I am terrified of things in charge of that much current which might be security-hackable (though I understand the protections in ISO15118 which the cars have)
