Exploitation Conditions

User interaction is required - the victim must actively open or interact with attacker-controlled content (such as a malicious application, crafted notification, or web page) that invokes the vibration service with pathological input. No authentication or special privileges are required from the attacker's side. Exploitation is limited to Huawei devices running unpatched HarmonyOS or EMUI; the scope does not change (S:U), meaning the DoS is contained to the affected device rather than propagating to adjacent systems. The 'Information Disclosure' tag in source intelligence is inconsistent with the CVSS C:N rating - if confidentiality impact exists, it would represent an additional exploitation condition or impact not currently reflected in the vector.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 score of 6.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) reflects a moderate-severity DoS: network-reachable, low complexity, no privileges, but requiring user interaction, which meaningfully reduces mass-exploitation feasibility compared to a fully unauthenticated, no-interaction path. EPSS data is not provided; without it, exploitation probability cannot be quantified beyond CVSS signals. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, and no POC is known at this time, suggesting it has not been weaponized at scale. Notably, the 'Information Disclosure' tag in the source intelligence directly contradicts the CVSS C:N rating - either the tag is misapplied (perhaps carried over from a related advisory) or there is an undisclosed confidentiality dimension not captured in the current CVSS vector; defenders should verify with the Huawei bulletin. Impact is limited to availability (device DoS), with no integrity or confidentiality compromise per the CVSS metrics. Real-world priority is moderate: the user-interaction gate reduces drive-by exploitability, but HarmonyOS and EMUI have a substantial device footprint, particularly in consumer and enterprise Asia-Pacific environments.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a malicious application or web page that calls the device vibration API with parameters designed to trigger unbounded memory allocation in the vibration service. When a victim on an unpatched HarmonyOS or EMUI device opens the malicious content, the vibration service exhausts device memory, causing the service to crash or rendering the device temporarily unresponsive. No public POC code has been identified, but the low attack complexity rating suggests exploitation would be straightforward once a working trigger is developed.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 15, 2026

Uncontrolled memory allocation in Huawei's vibration service crashes affected HarmonyOS and EMUI devices, resulting in a denial-of-service condition impacting device availability. The flaw is remotely triggerable with no privileges required but demands user interaction, consistent with delivery via crafted content such as a malicious application, webpage, or message that exercises the vibration API. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis, though Huawei has issued a July 2026 security bulletin addressing the issue.

RemediationAI

Apply the patch issued by Huawei in the July 2026 security bulletin (https://consumer.huawei.com/en/support/bulletin/2026/7/); the exact patched version numbers are not enumerated in available NVD data and must be confirmed from that advisory. Users should update HarmonyOS and EMUI devices to the build version specified by Huawei as the remediated release via the device's OTA update mechanism (Settings > System > Software update). As a compensating control prior to patching, restricting installation of untrusted third-party applications that invoke vibration APIs can reduce the attack surface, though this does not address web- or message-delivered vectors. Disabling vibration system-wide via accessibility settings would eliminate the vulnerable code path but significantly degrades usability for notification-dependent workflows.

Technical ContextAI · show details

CWE-789 (Uncontrolled Memory Allocation) identifies the root cause: the vibration service fails to impose an upper bound on memory it allocates in response to crafted input, allowing an attacker-controlled call to exhaust available resources and crash the service or the device. The affected products, per CPE strings cpe:2.3:a:huawei:harmony_os:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* and cpe:2.3:a:huawei:emui:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, span all currently listed versions of both HarmonyOS (Huawei's proprietary OS) and EMUI (its Android-derived layer), indicating a shared or ported vibration service component. The wildcard version qualifiers mean precise affected build ranges are not enumerated in NVD CPE data and must be confirmed via the vendor bulletin.
