Severity by source
AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:L
Local-only vector confirmed; PR:N reflects that any installed app exploits the Settings IPC boundary without requesting elevated permissions, with user interaction as the sole trigger gate.
Primary rating from Vendor (huawei).

Permission control vulnerability in the Settings module. Impact: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may affect service confidentiality.
AnalysisAI
Permission control bypass in the Settings module of Huawei HarmonyOS and EMUI exposes sensitive service data to unauthorized local actors. A locally-installed application without elevated privileges can exploit the flaw (CWE-200) during user interaction with the Settings UI to read confidential configuration or service data - with a CVSS-rated High confidentiality impact (C:H). …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a malicious or attacker-controlled application to be installed on the target Huawei device running HarmonyOS or EMUI. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS score of 6.6 (Medium) reflects meaningful but bounded risk: the local attack vector (AV:L) eliminates remote exploitation, and user interaction is required (UI:R), preventing silent background exploitation. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker distributes a malicious application - via a third-party app store, phishing link, or social engineering - to a target's Huawei HarmonyOS or EMUI device. When the user opens or otherwise interacts with the Settings module, the malicious app exploits the permission control bypass to read restricted service configuration data, potentially exposing account identifiers, system credentials, or sensitive configuration parameters. … |
| Remediation | Consult and apply the update detailed in Huawei's July 2026 security bulletin (https://consumer.huawei.com/en/support/bulletin/2026/7/) - the patch is available per vendor advisory, though exact fixed version numbers are not confirmed in the data available at time of analysis and must be retrieved directly from the bulletin. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
