Service disruption via out-of-bounds image read
Published Dec 12, 2024 · Updated Sep 18, 2025
Out-of-bounds read in Huawei HarmonyOS 5.0.0 image decoding allows remote attackers to interrupt service through crafted image data. The decoder reads beyond the intended buffer while processing untrusted image content, although Huawei has not disclosed the affected function or missing bounds check. Delivery is network-based, exploitation requires user interaction, and Huawei describes the operational consequence as affected availability.
