CVE-2022-48621Network attack vector

Confidentiality loss via unauthenticated Wi-Fi functions

Published Feb 18, 2024 · Updated Dec 6, 2024

Missing authentication in the Wi-Fi module of Huawei HarmonyOS and EMUI allows remote attackers to compromise service confidentiality. The module exposes unspecified critical Wi-Fi functions without verifying an identity, but Huawei has not identified the affected interface or request. Network reachability to the affected Wi-Fi service is required; the public record establishes confidentiality loss but no data type or read scope.
