CVE-2019-5302 — There are two denial of service vulnerabilities on some Huawei smartphones

Medium CVSS 5.3

There are two denial of service vulnerabilities on some Huawei smartphones. An attacker may send specially crafted TD-SCDMA messages from a rogue base station to the affected devices. Due to insufficient input validation of two values when parsing the messages, successful exploit may cause device abnormal. This is 1 out of 2 vulnerabilities. Different than CVE-2020-5303. Affected products are: ALP-AL00B: earlier than 9.1.0.333(C00E333R2P1T8) ALP-L09: earlier than 9.1.0.300(C432E4R1P9T8) ALP-L29: earlier than 9.1.0.315(C636E5R1P13T8) BLA-L29C: earlier than 9.1.0.321(C636E4R1P14T8), earlier than 9.1.0.330(C432E6R1P12T8), earlier than 9.1.0.302(C635E4R1P13T8) Berkeley-AL20: earlier than 9.1.0.333(C00E333R2P1T8) Berkeley-L09: earlier than 9.1.0.350(C10E3R1P14T8), earlier than 9.1.0.351(C432E5R1P13T8), earlier than 9.1.0.350(C636E4R1P13T8) Charlotte-L09C: earlier than 9.1.0.311(C185E4R1P11T8), earlier than 9.1.0.345(C432E8R1P11T8) Charlotte-L29C: earlier than 9.1.0.325(C185E4R1P11T8), earlier than 9.1.0.335(C636E3R1P13T8), earlier than 9.1.0.345(C432E8R1P11T8), earlier than 9.1.0.336(C605E3R1P12T8) Columbia-AL10B: earlier than 9.1.0.333(C00E333R1P1T8) Columbia-L29D: earlier than 9.1.0.…

Matched remediation archetype

Resource exhaustion and denial of service

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Identify attacker-influenced work factors including input size, nesting, compression, fan-out, regex cost, allocation, recursion, retries, and connection lifetime.
  • Map per-request and shared CPU, memory, disk, descriptor, thread, queue, and downstream-service limits.
  • Determine whether authentication, tenancy, quotas, and rate controls apply before expensive processing begins.

Remediate safely

  • Bound input size, nesting, expansion, work, concurrency, queue depth, retries, and execution time before resource-intensive processing.
  • Release resources on every success, error, cancellation, and timeout path and use backpressure instead of unbounded buffering.
  • Update affected components and add small deterministic tests that assert resource ceilings rather than exhausting a host.
