A session hijacking vulnerability has been detected in the Imou Life application affecting version 6.7.0. This vulnerability could allow an attacker to hijack user accounts due to the QR code functionality not properly filtering codes when scanning a new device and directly running WebView without prompting or displaying it to the user. This vulnerability could trigger phishing attacks.
Authenticating a user, or otherwise establishing a new user session, without invalidating any existing session identifier gives an attacker the opportunity to steal authenticated sessions.
| Name | Vendor | Start Version | End Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| Imou_life | Imoulife | 6.7.0 (including) | 6.7.0 (including) |
Such a scenario is commonly observed when:
In the generic exploit of session fixation vulnerabilities, an attacker creates a new session on a web application and records the associated session identifier. The attacker then causes the victim to associate, and possibly authenticate, against the server using that session identifier, giving the attacker access to the user’s account through the active session.
