Impact command injection vulnerability

Patches Problem was fixed with a parameter check. Please upgrade to version >= 5.3.1

Workarounds If you cannot upgrade, be sure to check or sanitize service parameters that are passed to si.inetLatency(), si.inetChecksite(), si.services(), si.processLoad() ... do only allow strings, reject any arrays. String sanitation works as expected.

Apache Cordova 3.3.0 and earlier and Adobe PhoneGap 2.9.0 and earlier allow remote attackers to bypass intended device-resource restrictions of an event-based bridge via a crafted library clone that leverages IFRAME script execution and directly accesses bridge JavaScript objects, as demonstrated by certain cordova.require calls.

Apache Cordova 3.3.0 and earlier and Adobe PhoneGap 2.9.0 and earlier allow remote attackers to bypass intended device-resource restrictions of an event-based bridge via a crafted library clone that leverages IFRAME script execution and waits a certain amount of time for an OnJsPrompt handler return value as an alternative to correct synchronization.

Apache Cordova 3.3.0 and earlier and Adobe PhoneGap 2.9.0 and earlier on Windows Phone 7 and 8 do not properly restrict navigation events, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended device-resource restrictions via content that is accessed (1) in an IFRAME element or (2) with the XMLHttpRequest method by a crafted application.

Apache Cordova 3.3.0 and earlier and Adobe PhoneGap 2.9.0 and earlier do not anchor the end of domain-name regular expressions, which allows remote attackers to bypass a whitelist protection mechanism via a domain name that contains an acceptable name as an initial substring.

After the Android platform is added to Cordova the first time, or after a project is created using the build scripts, the scripts will fetch Gradle on the first build. However, since the default URI is not using https, it is vulnerable to a MiTM and the Gradle executable is not safe. The severity of this issue is high due to the fact that the build scripts immediately start a build after Gradle has been fetched. Developers who are concerned about this issue should install version 6.1.2 or higher of Cordova-Android. If developers are unable to install the latest version, this vulnerability can easily be mitigated by setting the CORDOVAANDROIDGRADLEDISTRIBUTIONURL environment variable to https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.14.1-all.zip

Apache Cordova Android before 3.5.1 allows remote attackers to bypass the HTTP whitelist and connect to arbitrary servers by using JavaScript to open WebSocket connections through WebView.

Apache Cordova Android before 3.5.1 allows remote attackers to open and send data to arbitrary applications via a URL with a crafted URI scheme for an Android intent.

Apache Cordova Android before 3.5.1 allows remote attackers to change the start page via a crafted intent URL.

Apache Cordova-Android before 3.7.0 improperly generates random values for BridgeSecret data, which makes it easier for attackers to conduct bridge hijacking attacks by predicting a value.

Apache Cordova-Android before 4.1.0, when an application relies on a remote server, improperly implements a JavaScript whitelist protection mechanism, which allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a crafted URI.

Product: Apache Cordova Android 5.2.2 and earlier. The application calls methods of the Log class. Messages passed to these methods (Log.v(), Log.d(), Log.i(), Log.w(), and Log.e()) are stored in a series of circular buffers on the device. By default, a maximum of four 16 KB rotated logs are kept in addition to the current log. The logged data can be read using Logcat on the device. When using platforms prior to Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), the log data is not sandboxed per application; any application installed on the device has the capability to read data logged by other applications.

We have resolved a security issue in the camera plugin that could have affected certain Cordova (Android) applications. An attacker who could install (or lead the victim to install) a specially crafted (or malicious) Android application would be able to access pictures taken with the app externally.
