CVE-2026-34861: CWE-362 Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition') in Huawei HarmonyOS
Race condition vulnerability in the thermal management module. Impact: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may affect availability.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CVE-2026-34861) in Huawei HarmonyOS 6.0.0 is classified as CWE-362, a race condition caused by improper synchronization in the thermal management module. The flaw allows concurrent execution conflicts on shared resources, potentially leading to availability issues. The CVSS vector indicates the attack requires local access with low complexity but high privileges and no user interaction. Confidentiality impact is low, integrity impact is high, and availability impact is high. No vendor advisory or patch information is currently provided.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation may disrupt the availability of the affected system by causing race conditions in the thermal management module. This could lead to system instability or denial of service conditions. The impact on confidentiality is low, but integrity and availability impacts are high according to the CVSS metrics.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, limit access to trusted users with high privileges and monitor for unusual system behavior related to thermal management. Avoid running untrusted code with elevated privileges on affected versions.
