CVE-2024-45070
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedin OpenHarmony v4.1.2 and prior versions allow a local attacker cause information leak through out-of-bounds Read.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceOut-of-bounds read vulnerability in OpenHarmony v4.1.2 and prior versions allows a local attacker to read memory outside intended bounds, potentially exposing sensitive information.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify OpenHarmony installationDetermine if OpenHarmony is present in your environment by checking for OpenHarmony-related processes, services, or installed packages using system inventory toolsAffected if OpenHarmony software is found on the system
-
Determine installed OpenHarmony versionUse system commands or check version files to retrieve the exact OpenHarmony version number (for example, check system info, package manager, or version configuration files)Affected if The installed version cannot be determined or is <= 4.1.2
-
Compare version to affected rangeCompare the identified version against the affected range: any version of OpenHarmony <= 4.1.2 is vulnerableAffected if The installed version is 4.1.2 or any prior version
-
Assess local access exposureEvaluate whether untrusted local users or processes can interact with the OpenHarmony componentsAffected if Local attackers can access OpenHarmony services or interfaces
You are affected if OpenHarmony version 4.1.2 or any earlier version is installed in your environment.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedApply the vendor patch for CVE-2024-45070 when available; update OpenHarmony to the latest patched version.
OpenHarmony 4.1.3 or later stable release
- 1. Identify the current OpenHarmony version in use by checking system version settings or using appropriate version detection commands
- 2. Review the OpenHarmony release notes on the official gitee.com repository to confirm the availability of version 4.1.3 or later
- 3. Plan and schedule an upgrade to OpenHarmony version 4.1.3 or the latest stable release available
- 4. Before upgrading, perform a full backup of the current system configuration and data
- 5. Follow the official OpenHarmony upgrade/flash procedures documented for your specific device or build environment
- 6. After upgrade, verify the system is functioning correctly and the vulnerability is resolved
- 7. Validate that no regressions have been introduced by testing critical functionality
