There is a Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition Vulnerability in Huawei Smartphone. Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities may escalate the permission to that of the root user.
The product checks the state of a resource before using that resource, but the resource's state can change between the check and the use in a way that invalidates the results of the check. This can cause the product to perform invalid actions when the resource is in an unexpected state.
