CVE-2020-1823


There are multiple out of bounds (OOB) read vulnerabilities in the implementation of the Common Open Policy Service (COPS) protocol of some Huawei products. The specific decoding function may occur out-of-bounds read when processes an incoming data packet. Successful exploit of these vulnerabilities may disrupt service on the affected device. (Vulnerability ID: HWPSIRT-2018-12275,HWPSIRT-2018-12276,HWPSIRT-2018-12277,HWPSIRT-2018-12278,HWPSIRT-2018-12279,HWPSIRT-2018-12280 and HWPSIRT-2018-12289) The seven vulnerabilities have been assigned seven Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) IDs: CVE-2020-1818, CVE-2020-1819, CVE-2020-1820, CVE-2020-1821, CVE-2020-1822, CVE-2020-1823 and CVE-2020-1824.


Security Impact Summary

This vulnerability carries a LOW severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 3.7, indicating it can be exploited remotely over the network but requires specific conditions to be met without requiring user interaction and does not require pre-existing privileges . The vulnerability impacts and limited availability for affected systems. Impacting 18 products from huawei, from huawei, from huawei and 15 others, organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.

Historical Context

Reported in 2024, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

How SecUtils Interprets This CVE

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For huawei's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
