There is an information disclosure vulnerability on Mate 9 Pro Huawei smartphones versions earlier than LON-AL00B9.0.1.150 (C00E61R1P8T8). An attacker could view the photos after a series of operations without unlocking the screen lock. Successful exploit could cause an information disclosure condition.
The product does not implement sufficient measures to prevent multiple failed authentication attempts within a short time frame.

Common protection mechanisms include:
Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid [REF-1482].
Consider using libraries with authentication capabilities such as OpenSSL or the ESAPI Authenticator. [REF-45]
