CVE-2016-8785 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Huawei S12700 V200R007C00, V200R008C00, S5700 V200R007C00, S7700 V200R002C00, V200R005C00, V200R006C00, V200R007C00, V200R008C00, S9700 V200R007C00 have an input validation vulnerability. Due to the lack of input validation, an attacker may craft a malformed packet and send it to the device using VRP, causing the device to display additional memory data and possibly leading to sensitive information leakage.. EPSS estimates a 0.86% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
