High


Details:
========
Multiple local command injection web vulnerabilities are detected  in the 
mobile SimpleTransfer Photo 2.2.1 iOS app (Apple - iPad|iPhone).
The vulnerability allows to inject local commands via vulnerable system values 
to compromise the apple mobile iOS application.

The first vulnerability is located in the index module when processing to load 
the unique ipad or iphone device name. 
Local attackers can change the ipad or iphone device name to system specific 
commands and file requests to provoke 
the execution when processing to watch the main index photo listing. The 
execution of the script code occurs in the 
header were the device name web context is located when processing to display 
the device name in the index listing.

The secound vulnerability is located in the index module when processing to 
load the ipad or iphone photo album folder names. 
Local attackers can change the ipad or iphone photo album names to system 
specific commands and file requests to provoke 
the execution when processing to watch the main index album listing. The 
execution of the script code occurs in the album 
folder name web context when processing to display the vulnerable name value 
listing.

Exploitation of the web vulnerability requires an application user account 
(standard) and low or medium user interaction.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results unauthorized execution of 
system specific commands and file or path requests.

(http://localhost:8080/rambax/album/D64E64A5-7C0B-4530-B4F5-7406D5BDF168)


Solution:
=========
The vulnerabilities can be patched by a secure parse of the album name and 
device name parameter.
Encode the strings and set an own exception-handling to prevent against future 
command injection attacks.


Risk:
=====
The security risk of the local command injection web vulnerabilities are 
estimated as high(-).
