CVE-2024-54101

Local installation-module denial of service

Published Dec 12, 2024 · Updated Dec 12, 2024

Improper input validation in Huawei HarmonyOS and EMUI allows local users to interrupt the installation module. Huawei has not disclosed the concrete input, code locus, or incorrect operation beyond classifying the flaw as improper input validation in that module. Exploitation requires local access but no prior privileges or user interaction, and the reported consequence is limited to availability loss; the resulting failure mode remains undisclosed.
