Discovery Status:

Published

Affected Product(s):

TigerCom
Product: My Assistant Free 1.1

Exploitation Technique:

Local

Severity Level:

High

Technical Details & Description:

A local file include web vulnerability has been discovered in the official TigerCom My Assistant v1.1 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 web vulnerability is located in the `filename` value of the `UPLOAD_FILE_TO_FOLDER` (uploadfile) module. Remote attackers are able
to inject own files with malicious `filename` values in the `upload` POST method request to compromise the mobile web-application. The local
file/path include execution occcurs in the index file/folder list context in the vulnerable name/path value. The attacker is able to inject
the local file 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 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 7.0. Exploitation of the local file include web vulnerability requires no privileged web-application user account but low
user interaction. Successful exploitation of the local file include web vulnerability results in mobile application or connected
device component compromise.

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

Vulnerable Service(s):
[+] WiFi Sharing

http://localhost:8080/UPLOAD_FILE_TO_FOLDER

Solution - Fix & Patch:

The vulnerability can be patched by a secure restriction and parse of the vulnerable filename value in the multi upload module.
Restrict the input name value and encode the name output value in the index listing module to prevent further local file include attacks.
Do not forget to disallow multiple file extensions which could result in the bypass or the filetype validation.

Security Risk:

The security risk of the local file include web vulnerability in the upload to file index module is estimated as high.
