Severity Level:

Medium
Technical Details & Description:
================================
A persistent input validation web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Private Photo+Video v1.1 Pro iOS mobile web-application.
The bug allows remote attackers to inject own malicious persistent script codes to the application-side of the vulnerable service.
The vulnerability is located in the name value of the add `New Album` input module. Remote attackers are able to inject own malicious
script codes to the album name value input. The attacker vector is persistent and the injetction request method is GET. The inject can
be done by an album rename/add via mobile sync or by the web-interface via new album function. The security risk of the persistent web
vulnerability is estimated as medium(+) with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 3.7(+)|(-)3.8.
Exploitation of the persistent web vulnerability requires low user interaction and a local low privileged mobile application account
or access to the local web interface service. Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in persistent session hijacking (customers),
account steal via persistent web attacks, persistent phishing or persistent manipulation of module context.
Request Method(s):
[+] GET
Vulnerable Module(s):
[+] New Album
Vulnerable Parameter(s):
[+] albumname > path value
Affected Module(s):
[+] FileManager > Path Dir Index Listing
Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The persistent input validation web vulnerability in the album name value can be exploited by local attackers via album sync but also by
remote attackers via web interface. In both cases low user interaction is required to exploit the web vulnerability. To reproduce the issue
or for security demonstration follow the provided information and steps below to continue.

Note: The issue can be exploited by local attackers with physical device access (album sync) but also by remote attackers (wifi ui) via the `add new albums` module.

Solution - Fix & Patch:
=======================
The vulnerability can be patched by a secure parse and encode of the albumname sync and album name add input values.
Encode the input and parse the
output in the path dir listing again to prevent further persistent script code injects.
Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of the persistent input validation web vulnerability is estimated as medium(+).
