CVE-2026-34853 Apr 13, 03:54 HIGH This Week

Permission bypass in Huawei HarmonyOS and EMUI LBS (Location-Based Services) module enables highly-privileged local attackers with user interaction to achieve full compromise across security contexts (confidentiality, integrity, availability impact). CVSS 7.7 HIGH severity. No public exploit identified at time of analysis. Attack requires local access, high privileges (administrator/root), user interaction, but succeeds with low complexity once prerequisites met. Scope change (S:C) indicates container escape or privilege boundary violation beyond the vulnerable component.
