HUAWEI Mate 30 versions earlier than 10.1.0.150(C00E136R5P3) and HUAWEI P30 version earlier than 10.1.0.160(C00E160R2P11) have a use after free vulnerability. There is a condition exists that the system would reference memory after it has been freed, the attacker should trick the user into running a crafted application with common privilege, successful exploit could cause code execution.

Weakness

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory “belongs” to the code that operates on the new pointer.
