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 · unedited
Exception capture failure vulnerability in the SVG parsing module of the ArkUI framework Impact: Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may affect availability.

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 confidence

This is a vulnerability in the SVG parsing module of Huawei's ArkUI framework where exception handling fails, potentially causing the application to crash or become unavailable when processing maliciously crafted SVG files.

MitigationApply the vendor patch for CVE-2024-58111 when available; until then, avoid processing untrusted SVG files in applications using ArkUI.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check HarmonyOS version
    Go to Settings > About Device on the device or use 'getprop ro.build.version.hos' via ADB shell to retrieve the HarmonyOS version number
    Affected if The version is exactly 5.0.0 (HarmonyOS 5.0.0)
  2. Identify if application uses ArkUI framework
    Review the application's codebase or runtime environment to determine if it utilizes ArkUI (formerly known as HarmonyOS UI framework) for rendering user interfaces
    Affected if The application is built using the ArkUI framework and imports or references the SVG parsing module
  3. Determine if SVG file processing is enabled
    Search application configuration, permissions, and code for SVG handling functionality such as image loading, SVG parsers, or file type handlers that accept SVG inputs
    Affected if The application has code paths that load, parse, or render SVG files from any source including network, local storage, or user uploads

The environment is affected if it runs HarmonyOS 5.0.0 AND uses an ArkUI-based application that processes SVG files
