Affected Product(s):
====================
AirPhoto
Product: WebDisk 4.1.0


Exploitation Technique:
=======================
Remote


Severity Level:
===============
High


Technical Details & Description:
================================
A code execution web vulnerability has been discovered in the official WebDisk (AirPhoto) v4.1.0 iOS mobile 
web-application.
The issue allows an attacker to compromise the application and connected device components by exploitation of system 
specific 
code execution vulnerability in the webdisk interface.

The vulnerability is located in the POST method request of the `upload` module. The main index provides an upload form 
which is 
not encoding the regular inputs. The context can be implemented to the upload form and the results is the 
application-side execution 
of system specific malicious codes. The file itself will not be transfered and the input generates the listing context 
to the index.

The input field of the upload modules executes the input wrong encoded via POST method request as filename value. 
Remote attackers are 
also able to execute own malicious codes by usage of a script code payload in combination with the affected system 
device values. The 
execution of the code occurs in the main webdisk file dir listing context. The attack vector is on application-side and 
the request method 
to attack the service is POST. The security risk of the remote code execution web vulnerability is estimated as 
critical with a cvss (common 
vulnerability scoring system) count of 8.7

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 device component compromise.


Request Method(s):
                                        [+] POST

Vulnerable Module(s):
                                        [+] upload

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
                                        [+] tdmid > filename

Affected Module(s):
                                        [+] WebDisk File Dir Index Listing [http://localhost:1861]


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The system specific (php) code execution vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without required user 
interaction or privileged web-application user account. 
For security demonstration or to reproduce the critical web vulnerability follow the provided steps and information 
below to continue.

Vulnerable Source: Upload File - Add [POST]

<form action="afupload.ma?p=%5Cvar%5Cmobile%5CApplications%5CA97714FF-A3BB-4FE3-ACE6-927930900B91%5CDocuments%5C" 
method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
        <textarea name="txt" class="textInput" id="Text1">


Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerability can be patched by a secure encode and parse of the upload form input field.
Secure and filter the upload POST method request to generate a file.
Encode also the vulnerable output name value in the index listing module itself.


Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of the code execution web vulnerability in the webdisk wifi interface is estimated as high.
