Technical Details & Description:
================================
A Path Traveral web vulnerability has been discovered in the official Album Streamer v2.0 iOS mobile web-application.
The security vulnerability allows a remote attacker to unauthorized request system path variables to compromise the
mobile application or apple iOS device.
The vulnerability is located in the `id` request to the `path` value of the photoDownload module. The vulnerability can be exploited by
local or remote attackers without user interaction. The attacker needs to replace the picture assets id path request of the photoDownload
module with a malicious payload like ./etc/passwd ./etc/hosts. The attack vector is located on the application-side of the service and
the request method to execute is GET (client-side).
The security risk of the path traversal web vulnerability is estimated as high with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 6.6.
Exploitation of the directory traversal web vulnerability requires no privileged application user account or user interaction.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in mobile application compromise
