CVE-2018-7937 — Huawei Hirouter-Cd20 Firmware security vulnerability
In Huawei HiRouter-CD20-10 with the versions before 1.9.6 and WS5200-10 with the versions before 1.9.6, there is a plug-in signature bypass vulnerability due to insufficient plug-in verification. An attacker may tamper with a legitimate plug-in to build a malicious plug-in and trick users into installing it. Successful exploit could allow the attacker to obtain the root permission of the device and take full control over the device.

General vulnerability remediation
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Confirm the affected component, deployment paths, reachable interfaces, and enabled features from inventories and configuration, without probing production destructively.
- Compare the advisory's affected conditions with the repository lockfiles, build manifests, artifacts, and runtime inventory.
- Identify data sensitivity, trust boundaries, and privilege level for every confirmed affected deployment.
Remediate safely
- Apply a vendor-supported fix or remove the affected component or feature; record the selected change and its source in the repository.
- Update direct and transitive dependency locks, generated artifacts, deployment manifests, and asset inventories together.
- Add a regression test for the documented unsafe condition using inert inputs and preserve rollback instructions.
