Local


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


Technical Details & Description:
================================
1.1
A local file include web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Perception System - File Pro Mini v5.2 iOS 
mobile 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 vulnerability is located in the filename value of the `Evereader Wi-Fi Sharing - Index` module. Local attackers are 
able to manipulate the 
wifi web interface by usage of the vulnerable upload function.  The service does not encode or parse the context of 
uploaded files.

Local attacker are able to manipulate the input of the files to exploit the issue by a POST method request to the wifi 
web-application interface. 
The execution of unauthorized local file or path request occurs in the index file dir listing module of the `Evereader 
Wi-Fi Sharing` application.
The request method to inject is POST and the attack vector is located on the application-side of the online-service.

The security risk of the local file include web vulnerability is estimated as high with a cvss (common vulnerability 
scoring system) count of 6.6. 
Exploitation of the file include web vulnerability requires no user interaction or privileged web-application user 
account. Successful exploitation 
of the local file include web vulnerability results in mobile application or connected device component compromise.

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

Vulnerable Module(s):
                                [+] Upload

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
                                [+] filename

Affected Module(s):
                                [+] Evereader Wi-Fi Sharing - Index


1.2
A local command/path injection web vulnerabilities has been discovered in the official Perception System - File Pro 
Mini v5.2 iOS mobile web-application.
The vulnerability allows attackers to inject local commands via vulnerable system values to compromise the apple mobile 
iOS application.

The vulnerability is located in the vulnerable `albumname` value of the `Evereader Wi-Fi Sharing - Index` module. Local 
attackers are able to inject own 
malicious system specific commands or path value requests to the vulnerable `albumname` value. The execution of the 
local command inject occurs in the 
`Evereader Wi-Fi Sharing - Index` module of file dir index. The attacker is able to manipulate the albumnames in the 
index module of the application by 
preparing to change the names via iOS app sync. The encoding and validation of the interface is broken by design 
because files, folders and other values 
can be manipulated by sync to compromise the iOS mobile application.

The attack vector is on the application-side and the injection requires physical device access and a local low 
privileged user account. Local attackers are 
also able to exploit the albumname validation issue in combination with persistent injected script codes to execute 
different local malicious attack requests.

The security risk of the local command/path inject vulnerability is estimated as medium with a cvss (common 
vulnerability scoring system) count of 5.9.
Exploitation of the command/path inject vulnerability requires a low privileged iOS device account with restricted 
access and no user interaction. 
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in unauthorized execution of system specific commands and 
unauthorized path value requests to 
compromise the mobile iOS application or the connected device components.

Request Method(s):
                                [+] [GET] (Execution)

Vulnerable Module(s):
                                [+] Albums

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
                                [+] albumname

Affected Module(s):
                                [+] Evereader Wi-Fi Sharing - Index

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
1.1
The local file include web vulnerability can be patched by a secure aprse and encode of the vulnerable filename value 
in the upload module POST method request.
Filter the filenames and restrict the input in the app and in remote requests to prevent local file include attacks.

1.2
To fix the second vulnerability encode and parse the albumname value on sync (PUT) request.
Filter the albumname values and restrict the input to disallow special chars and script code tags.


Security Risk:
==============
1.1
The security risk of the local file include web vulnerability in the filename value of the upload module is estimated 
as high. (CVSS 6.6)

1.2
The security risk of the local command injection vulnerability in the albumname value of the index module is estimated 
as medium. (CVSS 5.9)
