An attacker may trick Galaxy Apps into using an arbitrary hostname for which the attacker can provide a valid SSL certificate, and emulate the API of the app store to modify existing apps at installation time. The specific flaw involves an HTTP method to obtain the load-balanced hostname that enforces SSL only after obtaining a hostname from the load balancer, and a missing app signature validation in the application XML. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to achieve Remote Code Execution on the device. The Samsung ID is SVE-2018-12071." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "n/a" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "url": "https://security.samsungmobile.com/securityUpdate.smsb", "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://security.samsungmobile.com/securityUpdate.smsb" }, { "refsource": "MISC", "name": "https://www.adyta.pt/en/2019/01/29/writeup-samsung-app-store-rce-via-mitm-2/", "url": "https://www.adyta.pt/en/2019/01/29/writeup-samsung-app-store-rce-via-mitm-2/" } ] } }
