CVE-2019-9939
CVSS v3.1
8.8
High
| Vector | AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
SHAREit version prior to 4.0.36
Description
The issue allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication by requesting a non-existing page, which results in the application responding with a 200 status code and an empty page, and adding the requesting client device to the list of recognized devices. This can occur when the attacker is on the same network or joins public "open" Wi-Fi hotspots created by the application during file transfer initiation.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 4.0.36, update to version 4.0.36 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Wi-Fi hotspot created by the application during file transfers to minimize the risk of exploitation.
