According to the latest report, nearly 300 vulnerabilities in its HarmonyOS operating system were patched in 2022. After getting a ban from the US government, Huawei launched its new HarmonyOS operating system, which supports a wide range of devices, including phones, tablets, smart TVs, wearables and automotive infotainment systems.
Huawei is aware that in order to compete with Android and iOS, the operating system needs to be secure, which is why the company runs a bug bounty program with significant rewards for critical vulnerabilities and exploit chains.
A new report from SecurityWeek shows that more than 290 vulnerabilities were patched in HarmonyOS in 2022, including nearly 100 security flaws affecting third-party libraries. The data comes from the monthly security advisories published by the company last year.
Nearly two dozen vulnerabilities have been assigned a ‘critical’ severity rating and 94 have a ‘high’ severity rating.
