Technical ContextAI · show details
This vulnerability is classified as Out-of-bounds Read (CWE-125), which allows attackers to read data from memory outside the intended buffer boundaries. Certain Huawei products (AP2000;IPS Module;NGFW Module;NIP6300;NIP6600;NIP6800;S5700;SVN5600;SVN5800;SVN5800-C;SeMG9811;Secospace AntiDDoS8000;Secospace USG6300;Secospace USG6500;Secospace USG6600;USG6000V;eSpace U1981) have a DoS vulnerability. An attacker may send crafted messages from a FTP client to exploit this vulnerability. Due to insufficient validation of the message, successful exploit may cause the system out-of-bounds read and result in a denial of service condition of the affected service. Affected products include: Huawei Ap2000 Firmware, Huawei Ips Firmware, Huawei Ngfw Firmware, Huawei Nip6300 Firmware, Huawei Nip6600 Firmware.

What every action level means
SSVC AssessmentENISA
Priority Score
Attack Technique
A buffer overflow occurs when a program writes more data to a memory buffer than it was allocated to hold, causing the excess data to spill into adjacent memory regions.
Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
Denial of Service attacks render applications or systems unavailable by overwhelming resources or triggering failure conditions.
