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.

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.
5. Submit the settings and refresh the file dir index list
6. The code execution occurs in the file dir index list of ios app
7. 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(-).
