CVE-2017-15311

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

The baseband modules of Huawei Mate 10, Mate 10 Pro, Mate 9, and Mate 9 Pro have a stack overflow vulnerability due to lack of parameter validation. An attacker could send malicious packets to these devices within radio range, leading to stack overflow when the baseband module handles these packets.

Risk Assessment

This vulnerability could lead to denial of service attacks or remote code execution in the baseband module, posing a serious threat to the security of the devices and user data.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update the software to versions ALP-AL00 8.0.0.120(SP2C00), BLA-AL00 8.0.0.120(SP2C00), MHA-AL00B 8.0.0.334(C00), or LON-AL00B 8.0.0.334(C00) to mitigate this vulnerability.

Original NVD description (English source)

The baseband modules of Mate 10, Mate 10 Pro, Mate 9, Mate 9 Pro Huawei smart phones with software before ALP-AL00 8.0.0.120(SP2C00), before BLA-AL00 8.0.0.120(SP2C00), before MHA-AL00B 8.0.0.334(C00), and before LON-AL00B 8.0.0.334(C00) have a stack overflow vulnerability due to the lack of parameter validation. An attacker could send malicious packets to the smart phones within radio range by special wireless device, which leads stack overflow when the baseband module handles these packets. The attacker could exploit this vulnerability to perform a denial of service attack or remote code execution in baseband module.
