HighMetricsAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Huawei AR3200 versions V200R006C10 through V200R008C30
Huawei AR1200 (affected versions not specified)
Huawei AR120-S (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue is caused by insufficient validation of certain fields in SCTP messages, leading to an integer overflow vulnerability. A remote unauthenticated attacker could send a crafted SCTP message to the device, potentially causing a system reboot. The vulnerability can be exploited by sending a specially crafted SCTP message, allowing a remote attacker to reboot the system.
Recommendations
For Huawei AR3200 versions V200R006C10 through V200R008C30, update to a version that fixes the integer overflow vulnerability.
For Huawei AR1200 and Huawei AR120-S, at the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to SCTP messages to minimize the risk of exploitation.
