Critical


Technical Details & Description:
================================
1.1
2 local command/path injection web vulnerabilities has been discovered in the 
Simplex Solutions Inc Photo Transfer WiFi v1.4.4 for apple iOS.
The remote web vulnerability allows to inject local commands via vulnerable 
system values to compromise the apple mobile iOS application.

The vulnerability is located in the in the device name value of the index and 
sub category list module. Local attackers are 
able to inject own script codes as iOS device name. The execute of the injected 
script code occurs in 2 different section with 
persistent attack vector. The first section is the wifi app interface login 
were the application is listed. The secound execute 
occurs after the login in the smallheader interface section.The security risk 
of the command/path inject vulnerabilities are 
estimated as high(+) with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 
7.2(+)|(-)7.3.

Exploitation of the command/path inject vulnerability requires a local low 
privileged iOS device account with restricted access 
and no direct user interaction. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability 
results in unauthorized execute of system specific 
commands or unauthorized path requests.

Vulnerable Application(s):
                                [+] Photo Transfer Wifi v1.4.4

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
                                [+] devicename

Affected Module(s):
                                [+] Login - Device Name
                                [+] Index - Device Name



1.2
A persistent input validation web vulnerability has been discovered in the 
Simplex Solutions Inc Photo Transfer WiFi v1.4.4 for apple iOS.
The validation web vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject own 
malicious script codes by a persistent (application-side) attack vector.

The persistent input validation vulnerability is located in the album name 
value of the mobile application. Remote attackers and local low 
privileged user accounts can inject own malicious persistent script codes as 
album name. The execute occurs in the main index album name list
and the sub category list. By exchange of the information the issue can be 
exploited by remote attackers by a low user interaction sync. 
The security risk of the persistent vulnerabilities are estimated as medium(+) 
with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 4.6(+).

Exploitation of the persistent web vulnerability requires no or a local low 
privileged mobile application account and low user interaction. 
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability can lead to persistent session 
hijacking (customers), account steal via persistent web attacks, 
persistent phishing or persistent module context manipulation.


Vulnerable Application(s):
                                [+] Photo Transfer Wifi v1.4.4

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
                                [+] albumname

Affected Module(s):
                                [+] Index - Album Name List


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
1.1
The local command/path inject web vulnerability via devicename value can be 
exploited by local low privileged or restricted device 
user accounts & no user interaction. For security demonstration or to reproduce 
the command/path mobile app vulnerability follow 
the provided information and steps below.


Manual steps to exploit the vulnerability ...

1.  Install the photo transfer wifi iOS mobile application
2.  Open the iOS settings and switch to the info > device name input
3.  Include your name and the payload to execute an app command or request a 
local device path (">%20<x src=\..\<../var/mobile/Library/[APP PATH]/">)
4.  Save the input and open the photo transfer wifi app
Note: After the startup the web-server is available
5.  Open the url following url to the web interface of the mobile application 
(http://localhost:8080)
6.  The first execute occurs in the error message with the devicename value of 
the login
7.  Successful reproduce of the first vulnerability done ... let us watch now 
the secound issue of the devicename after the login
8.  Exclude in the iOS device settings the payload, save and open the service 
via web-server http request
9.  Login to the interface with the default username
10. The execute of the command or path request occurs after the login in the 
devicename value
11. Successful reproduce of the secound vulnerability done!


PoC: Login > devicepreview - devicename

  <div class="errormessage">
            Invalid password. Try again!
        </div>
        <div class="youconnect">
            You are now connecting to
        </div>
        <div class="devicepreview">
            <div class="devicepreviewInternal">
                <p class="devicename">
                device bkm>"<<>"<x src="login_incorrect_files/">%20<x 
src=\..\<../var/mobile/Library/[APP PATH]/">
                </p>
                <div class='deviceico'>
                    <img src="/devices_ico/iPadB.png">
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
        
        <form method="POST" action="/login">
            <div class='forminputs'>
                <input type="password" name="password" class='passinput' 
placeholder='Enter Password' id="login_input">
                <input type="submit" value="Connect" class='passsubmit'>
            </div>
        </form>

Note: The injected command or path request execute occurs in the login and 
error message module.



PoC: Index - smallheader > devicename

   <body>
        
        <div class="smallheader">
            <img src="web/logo_small.png" style="float:left">
                <div class="devicepreview" style="float:right">
                    <div class="devicepreviewInternal">
                        <p class="devicename">
                        device bkm ">%20<x src=\..\<../var/mobile/Library/[APP 
PATH]/>
                        </p>
                        <div class="deviceico">
                            <img src="/devices_ico/iPadB.png">
                                </div>
                    </div>
                </div>
                </div>

Note: The secound inject/execute is located after the login in the 
`smallheader` class were the devicename will be visible.

1.2
The persistent input validation web vulnerability can be exploited by remote 
attackers with low privileged web-application user account 
and low user interaction. For security demonstration or to reproduce the 
vulnerability follow the information and steps below.


Manual steps to reproduce the vulnerability ...

1. Install the photo transfer wifi mobile app
2. Open the iOS photo app (default software)
3. Add a new album and inject into the album name your own script code (payload)
4. Open the photo transfer wifi mobile app
5. Go to the local web-server url (localhost:8080)
Note: After the login to the interface the index displays an album name listing
6. The script code execute occurs with persistent attack vector in the index 
album name list context
7. Successful reproduce of the vulnerability done!


PoC: Gallery > Album - albumtitle

<div class="albumtitle">
        <><[PERSISTENT INJECTED SCRIPT CODE IN ALBUM NAME VALUE VIA POST METHOD 
INJECT!]>
    </div>
    <div class="albumsize">
        3 Items
    </div>
    </a><div class="ziploaddiv"><a 
href="http://localhost:8080/gallery/album/?albumtitle=WallpapersHD&;
album=assets-library%3A%2F%2Fgroup%2F%3Fid%3DC44B3062-3A67-4BFA-AF16-04CC8DE2CD29&partial=0"
 class="interceptme">
</a><a 
href="http://192.168.2.106:8080/gallery/zip_album/WallpapersHD.zip?album=assets-library%3A%2F%2Fgroup%2F%3Fid%3DC44B3062-
3A67-4BFA-AF16-04CC8DE2CD29" class="zipload" target="_blank">
<img src="localhost8080_files/download.png" class="ziploadimg" width="36px">
        </a>
        <div class="ziploadtext">
        </div>
    </div>
</div>


Note: The issue can be exploited by local privileged user accounts in the iOS 
photo app (default) or by a remote attacker via album to file sync. 
(interceptme!? ;)

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
1.1
The command/path inject web vulnerabilities can be patched by a secure encode 
and parse of the devicename value.
Parse the devicename in the login section and in the smallheader class to 
devicename.

1.2
The persistent input validation web vulnerability can be patched by a secure 
parse and encode of the album name value.
All GET requests with the value and the input by sync needs to be filtered by a 
secure mechanism.


Security Risk:
==============
1.1
The security risk of the local command/path inject web vulnerabilities are 
estimated as high.

1.2
The security risk of the persistent album name web vulnerability is estimated 
as medium(+).
