Affected Product(s):
====================
Arvin Brook
Product: iVault - Private Photos & Videos Vault + Secrets Folders Manager 1.1


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


Severity Level:
===============
High


Technical Details & Description:
================================
The application-side path/directory traversal web vulnerability has been discovered in the official iVault Private Photos & Videos v1.1 iOS mobile application.
The vulnerability allows an local attacker to unauthorized access path- or directories values to leak information or compromise the mobile application privacy.

The first vulnerability is located in the `path & directory` value of the wifi web-access module. Remote attackers are able to request the via vulnerable path 
value any application content even if protected. The attackers are able to include local frames as path value to request an internal application path to 
unauthorized access stored private images/files. The issue can be combined with script-code attacks but is not limited to the condition only. The attack vector 
is located on the application-side and the method to include the malicious path value request is a sync (device). The security risk of the 
directory traversal vulnerability is estimated as medium with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 6.8(+)|(-)6.9.

Exploitation of the local `path & directory` vulnerability requires a low privileged device user account with physical device access and without user interaction.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in unauthorized picture or file access, information disclosure and further application-side attacks.

Vulnerable Input(s):
				[+] Path

Vulnerable Module(s):
				[+] Directory

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
				[+] Oberverzeichnis > aktuell:(x)

Affected Module(s):
				[+] Path Dir Listing (each WiFi web access side)


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The application-side vulnerability can be exploited by local attackers with physical device access and low privileged user account.
User interaction is not required. For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow the provided information 
and steps below to continue.

                    currentTop = currentTop.substring(0, currentTop.length-2);
                    currentTop = Number(currentTop);
                    
                    var not = ((currentTop > tipHiddenTop) && (currentTop < tipShownTop))

PoC: Execution

<div id="content" onselectstart="return false;">
<a href="/logout.html" style="float:right; margin:10px;">outloggen</a>
            
<h1 style="padding:0 15px 0">WiFi web access</h1>

Reference(s):
http://localhost:9900/


Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerability can be patched by a secure restriction and filter process of the `path` and `directory` value request.
Parse and encode also the vulnerable `Oberverzeichnis > aktuell:(x)` output values on each wifi web access page to prevent directory traversal attacks.


Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of the local directory/path traversal web vulnerability is estimated as high(-).
