There is a buffer overflow vulnerability in several Huawei products. The system does not sufficiently validate certain configuration parameter which is passed from user that would cause buffer overflow. The attacker should trick the user into installing and running a malicious application with a high privilege, successful exploit may cause code execution. Affected product include Huawei HONOR 20 PRO, Mate 20, Mate 20 Pro, Mate 20 X, P30, P30 Pro, Hima-L29C, Laya-AL00EP, Princeton-AL10B, Tony-AL00B, Yale-L61A, Yale-TL00B and YaleP-AL10B.
The product copies an input buffer to an output buffer without verifying that the size of the input buffer is less than the size of the output buffer, leading to a buffer overflow.
