It&#8217;s interesting enough to share here so that developers can avoid similar vulnerabilities in their software.<\/p>\n<p>The <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.redteam.pl\/2020\/08\/stealing-local-files-using-safari-web.html\">exploit<\/a> involves getting someone to open in Safari a web page with a button that triggers the WebShareAPI in a way that launches native Mail or Gmail apps. In doing so, the message can attach a file from the local system, such as the browser history and other sensitive files, while hiding the attachment from view.<\/p>\n<p>It probably works with other iOS browsers too because Apple forces all iOS browsers to use its <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/developer.apple.com\/documentation\/webkit\/wkwebview\">WKWebView<\/a> class, which implements the WebShare API, for rendering web content.<\/p>\n<p>Wylecial claims to have revealed the flaw in April to Apple, which after several unresponsive months recently asked for disclosure to be delayed until Spring 2021, when the company thought it might get around to issuing a security update.<\/p>\n<p>Finding it unreasonable to be asked to wait for a year, Wylecial went ahead and published details about the flaw.<\/p>\n<p>The Web Share API, he explains, lets browser users share links in the browser with third-party native applications like mail and messaging apps. The API allows a <code>file:<\/code> path to be supplied as if it were a URL to be shared. Native apps can then receive that file path via the <code>navigator.share<\/code> function and will supply it to the shared message.<\/p>\n<p>In a GitHub <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/w3c\/web-share\/issues\/173#issue-685938974\">issue<\/a> to the Web Share API repo, Matt Giuca, a Google Chrome developer, says, &#8220;The vulnerability is due to apparent misbehavior of the native app, which is not subject to same-origin policy and is therefore able to fetch any URL it wants, including local files. Native apps should not trust incoming intents (which could be coming from any app), but from the browser side, we have no control over the behavior of native apps.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Giuca adds that the issue goes beyond file URLs. It has implications for any sensitive URL on the user&#8217;s private network, like router configuration files, he suggests, adding that it also affects public URLs that might reveal private information if accessed with local cookie files.<\/p>\n<p>Wylecial&#8217;s <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ZO389iwdit8\">video demo<\/a> shows that malicious code can attach a sensitive local file, like a user&#8217;s <code>\/etc\/passwd<\/code> file or Safari browsing history, to an outgoing message.<\/p>\n<p>The bug isn&#8217;t too serious, Wylecial says, because user interaction is required, though he allows that it&#8217;s easy enough to make the shared file invisible to the user. That would make successful data exfiltration more likely.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" readability=\"14.195845697329\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Wow, this Web Share API bug \u2935\ufe0f is concerning.\n<\/p>\n<p>const pwn = () =&gt; {<br \/>\n<br \/>navigator.share({<br \/>\n<br \/>text: &#8216;Check out this cute kitten!&#8217;,<br \/>\n<br \/>url: &#8216;file:\/\/\/etc\/passwd&#8217;,<br \/>\n<br \/>});<br \/>\n<br \/>};\n<\/p>\n<p>Turns out Safari actually shares the _contents_ of \/etc\/passwords, and allows for stealing the history, too. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/O0J7tqmYyq\">https:\/\/t.co\/O0J7tqmYyq<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Thomas Steiner (@tomayac) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tomayac\/status\/1298371563767701505?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 25, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>About a day ago, Apple&#8217;s WebKit team developed <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/trac.webkit.org\/changeset\/266151\/webkit\">a fix<\/a> for the issue.
