A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, was found in Huawei S7700, S9300, S9700 and S12700. This affects an unknown function of the component Random Number Generator. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a information disclosure vulnerability (Private Key). CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-200. The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality. The summary by CVE is:

Huawei S7700, S9300, S9700, and S12700 devices with software before V200R008C00SPC500 use random numbers with insufficient entropy to generate self-signed certificates, which makes it easier for remote attackers to discover private keys by leveraging knowledge of a certificate.

The weakness was released 09/07/2016 by Frank Gifford (Website). It is possible to read the advisory at huawei.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2016-6670 since 08/10/2016. The exploitability is told to be difficult. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not publicly available. The attack technique deployed by this issue is T1592 according to MITRE ATT&CK.
