The NFC module has bundle serialization/deserialization vulnerabilities. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may cause third-party apps to read and write files that are accessible only to system apps.

Weakness

The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Emui Huawei 12.0.0 (including) 12.0.0 (including)
Harmonyos Huawei 2.0 (including) 2.0 (including)

Potential Mitigations

  • Make fields transient to protect them from deserialization.
  • An attempt to serialize and then deserialize a class containing transient fields will result in NULLs where the transient data should be. This is an excellent way to prevent time, environment-based, or sensitive variables from being carried over and used improperly.
