Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Huawei DP300 version V500R002C00

Description: The issue is caused by a lack of validation, leading to a buffer overflow. An authenticated local attacker can exploit this by crafting specific XML files, which when parsed, can result in denial of service (DoS) attacks or remote code execution on the device.

Recommendations: For Huawei DP300 version V500R002C00, consider restricting access to the XML file parsing functionality until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the affected XML parsing feature to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
