HUAWEI Mate 20 smartphones with versions earlier than 10.1.0.160(C00E160R2P11) have an improper authorization vulnerability. The software does not properly restrict certain operation in certain scenario, the attacker should do certain configuration before the user turns on student mode function. Successful exploit could allow the attacker to bypass the limit of student mode function. Affected product versions include: HUAWEI Mate 20 versions Versions earlier than 10.1.0.160(C00E160R3P8).
This vulnerability carries a LOW severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 2.4, with relatively low complexity without requiring user interaction and does not require pre-existing privileges . The vulnerability impacts limited integrity, for affected systems. Impacting 2 products from huawei, from huawei organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2020, 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.

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.
