Vulnerability Disclosure Timeline: ================================== 2014-09-11: Public Disclosure (Vulnerability Laboratory) Discovery Status: ================= Published Affected Product(s): ==================== Qiwen Zhang Product: Briefcase Pro - iOS Mobile Web Application 4.0 Exploitation Technique: ======================= Remote Severity Level: =============== Critical Technical Details & Description: ================================ 1.1 A remote code execution web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Briefcase Pro v4.0 iOS mobile wifi web-application. The vulnerbaility allows an attacker to compromise the application and connected device by usage of a system specific command execution. The vulnerability is located in the `Create Folder (Add Folder)` input field. The input field to create folders allows to inject the input via POST method request. The request validation has only a simple single quote encoding. Remote attackers are easily able to execute code by usage of a script code payload in combination with system device specific php code values. The execution of the code occurs in the main index file dir listing context. The attack vector is on application-side and the request method to attack the service is POST. The remote attacker is able to tamper the create new folder post method request and can intercept the values twice to attach the second manipulated path value to provoke a code execution. After the add request it is possible to attach to the already included values via create new folder to execute the code. The security risk of the remote code execution web vulnerability is estimated as critical with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 9.2. Exploitation of the remote code execution web vulnerability requires no privileged application user account (passwd default blank) or user interaction. Successful exploitation of the code execution vulnerability results in mobile application compromise and connected or affected component compromise. Request Method(s): [+] [POST] Vulnerable Module(s): [+] Create Folder (Add Folder) Vulnerable Parameter(s): [+] name to path id Affected Module(s): [+] previewFile.html?id=undefined&name= 1.2 A local file include web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Briefcase Pro v4.0 iOS mobile wifi web-application. 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 `upload files` module. Remote attackers are able to inject own files with malicious `filename` values in the `upload files` POST method request to compromise the mobile web-application. The local file/path include execution occcurs in the path dir index listing context. The attacker is able to inject the local file include request by usage of the `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 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 6.3. Exploitation of the local file include web vulnerability requires no user interaction but a privileged web-application user account with low user auth. Successful exploitation of the local file include web vulnerability results in mobile application or connected device component compromise. Request Method(s): [+] [POST] Vulnerable Module(s): [+] Upload Files Vulnerable Parameter(s): [+] filename Affected Module(s): [+] Index Path Dir Listing (http://localhost/) Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================= 1.1 The code execution vulnerability in the create folder function can be exploited by remote attackers without privileged application user account or user interaction.

Disallow special char usage and prepare to encode the POST method request to add the folder name to the index module. Encode and filter also the foldername id value in the main item list of the application index. 1.2 The file include web vulnerability can be patched by a secure parse and encode of the filename value. Filter and restrict the filename input. validate the output names in the main item list of the application index. Security Risk: ============== 1.1 The security risk of the local code execution web vulnerability is estimated as critical. 1.2 The security risk of the local file include web vulnerability is estimated as high.
