Description: The issue is related to a memory leak when handling XML data. The software fails to release allocated memory properly. An authenticated, local attacker could exploit this by repeatedly uploading crafted XML files, leading to a memory leak and potentially causing service abnormalities.

Recommendations: For Huawei DP300 version V500R002C00, update the software to a version that properly releases allocated memory when handling XML data. For Huawei RP200 versions V500R002C00, V600R006C00, update the software to a version that properly releases allocated memory when handling XML data. For Huawei TE30 versions V100R001C10, V500R002C00, V600R006C00, update the software to a version that properly releases allocated memory when handling XML data. For Huawei TE40 versions V500R002C00, V600R006C00, update the software to a version that properly releases allocated memory when handling XML data. For Huawei TE50 versions V500R002C00, V600R006C00, update the software to a version that properly releases allocated memory when handling XML data. For Huawei TE60 versions V100R001C10, V500R002C00, V600R006C00, update the software to a version that properly releases allocated memory when handling XML data. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the upload of XML files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
