Product: USB & Wi-Fi Flash Drive - iOS Mobile Web Application (Wifi) 1.3


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


Severity Level:
===============
Critical


Technical Details & Description:
================================
A remote code execution web vulnerability has been discovered in the official USB & Wi-Fi Flash Drive v1.3 iOS mobile 
web-application.
The vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute own system (device) specific codes to compromise the ios mobile 
application.

The remote code execution vulnerability is located in the name value of the cgi/newfolder/ function module. Remote 
attackers are able to 
execute system specific codes in the GET method request of the insecure add `new folder` function. The execution takes 
place through 
the name value of the items. The execution itself occurs in the index file manager listing of the wifi flash drive 
mobile application.
There is no filter mechanism or protection module to parse available that needs to be bypassed to provoke the 
execution. The attack vector 
of the issue is location on the application-side and the request method to execute code is GET.

The security risk of the code execution vulnerability is estimated as critical with a cvss (common vulnerability 
scoring system) count of 8.9.
Exploitation of the code execution vulnerability requires no privileged account or user interaction. Successful 
exploitation of the remote 
vulnerability results in mobile application or device compromise.

Request Method(s):
                                [+] GET

Vulnerable Module(s):
                                [+] cgi/newfolder/

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
                                [+] name

Affected Module(s):
                                [+] WiFi File Manager


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The remote code execution web vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers in the wifi network without user 
interaction or privileged account.
For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow the provided information and steps below to

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerability can be patched by a secure parse and encode of the new folder input in the cgi path. Restrict the 
name input and filter to prevent code 
execution in the path values of the application. Encode and filter also the name output value in the wifi file manager 
index item listing module to prevent exploitation.


Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of the code execution web vulnerability in the new folder cgi module is estimated as critical.
