CVE-2018-7930
The Near Field Communication (NFC) module in Mate 9 Huawei mobile phones with the versions before MHA-L29B 8.0.0.366(C567) has an information leak vulnerability due to insufficient validation on data transfer requests.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.36%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
