CVE-2020-1874Network attack vector

Process reboot via invalid pointer access

Published Feb 28, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024

Invalid pointer access in Huawei NIP6800, Secospace USG6600, and USG9500 allows attackers to trigger process reboots via device operations. The software dereferences an invalid pointer after an operator logs in and performs certain management operations. An authenticated operator is required; successful exploitation reboots certain processes and does not establish whole-device compromise.
