Details:  
========  
A local file include web vulnerability via POST request method is detected in the mobile WirelessFiles v1.1 app for the apple ipad & iphone.  
The vulnerability allows remote attackers via POST method to inject local app webserver folders to request unauthorized local webserver files.  
  
The vulnerbility is located in the upload file module of the webserver (http://192.168.0.10/) when processing to load a manipulated   
filename via POST. The execution of the injected path or file request will occur when the attacker is opening the generated links in the   
file dir listing. First the remote attacker drag&drop (copy) a manipulated link with system path or local files to request. He adds the local   
file request and in the secound step the attacker opens the generated link in the listing to execute the code out of the index module.  
  
Exploitation of the web vulnerability requires low privileged application user account without user interaction.  
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in unauthorized path or file access via local file or path include attack.

Affected Module(s):  
[+] Air Transfer Filename Index - Listing  
  
  
Proof of Concept:  
=================  
The local file include web vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without required user interaction and with   
privileged application user account. For demonstration or reproduce ...  
  
  
Input: (Upload)  
http://192.168.0.10:8080/Upload  
  
Example:  
http://[Server]:[PORT]/[Local File or Path Include]  
  
PoC:

Manually steps to reproduce ...  
  
1. Buy the application Air Transfer of the apple app store  
2. Install the application and start it the service on your ipad or iphone  
3. Open the air transfer file dir service application http://192.168.0.10:8080/   
5. Start your browser session tamper tool to manipulate the post request live  
4. Use the Drag&Drop function to upload via http://192.168.0.10:8080/Upload and choose any random file  
5. Submit the random picture and exchange the name and filename values (POST) with your local path or file request  
7. Refresh the index listing of the main service http://192.168.0.10:8080 and open the generated link with your path/file request  
8. The path or file will be loaded and is accessable  
9. The application can be compromised by mobile webshell uploads and other malicious and persistent injected context  
10. Successful reproduced ... done!
