Out of Bounds Read Vulnerabilities in Huawei COPS Implementation

CVE-2020-1823

Summary

The vulnerabilities present in the implementation of the Common Open Policy Service (COPS) protocol in specific Huawei products allow for multiple out of bounds (OOB) read conditions. These occur when the decoding function processes incoming data packets, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information or disruption of service on the affected device. Various Huawei products including routers, switches, and firewalls are affected, highlighting the significance of monitoring and mitigating such security risks to maintain device integrity and operational continuity.
