- Initial Release Date: 2017-01-25
- Last Release Date: 2017-02-08
Huawei EMUI3.1 has two vulnerabilities.
The Keyguard application in Huawei EMUI3.1 has a privilege elevation vulnerability due to insufficient validation on specific parameters. An attacker may trick a user into installing a malicious application. Successful exploit could allow the attacker to launch command injection to gain elevated privileges. (Vulnerability ID: HWPSIRT-2017-01086)
This vulnerability has been assigned a Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) ID: CVE-2017-2692.
Huawei EMUI3.1 has a path traversal vulnerability due to insufficient path check during the decompression of files of specific types. An attacker may trick a user into downloading and installing malicious software. Successful exploit could allow the attacker to decompress malicious files into a target path. (Vulnerability ID: HWPSIRT-2017-01097)
This vulnerability has been assigned a Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) ID: CVE-2017-2693.

HWPSIRT-2017-01086：
Successful exploit could allow the attacker to gain elevated privileges.
HWPSIRT-2017-01097：
Successful exploit could allow the attacker to decompress malicious files into a target path.
The vulnerability classification has been performed by using the CVSSv3 scoring system (http://www.first.org/cvss/specification-document).
HWPSIRT-2017-01086：
Base Score: 6.7 (AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
Temporal Score: 6.2 (E:F/RL:O/RC:C)
HWPSIRT-2017-01097：
Base Score: 5.5 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N)
Temporal Score: 5.1 (E:F/RL:O/RC:C)
HWPSIRT-2017-01086:
1. Prerequisite:
The attacker has successfully tricked a user into installing a malicious application and obtained the permission on the built-in SD card.
2. Attacking procedure:
The EMUI Keyguard application implements insufficient validation on specific parameters. After the user is tricked into installing the malicious application, the attacker can exploit the vulnerability to inject commands, leading to privilege elevation.
HWPSIRT-2017-01097:
1. Prerequisite:
The attacker has successfully tricked a user into downloading and installing a malicious application in a specific path.
2. Attacking procedure:
