VAR-200812-0308

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 23:16

Directory traversal vulnerability in the web interface in Apple iPhone Configuration Web Utility 1.0 on Windows allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors. Exploiting this issue will allow an attacker to view arbitrary local files within the context of the webserver. Information harvested may aid in launching further attacks. iPhone is a smart phone product released by Apple Inc. (Apple.Inc, formerly Apple Computer) at the global WWDC 07 conference on January 10, 2007. Remote attackers can read arbitrary files through unknown means.

The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error when processing HTTP GET requests. This can be exploited to download arbitrary files from the affected system via directory traversal attacks. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION: Restrict network access to the application.
