Medium 4.0
In plain English
A medium-severity path traversal in Jabber for Android from Cisco. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.1% (higher than 3% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
Cisco Jabber for Android (com.cisco.im) before 15.3.1.311364 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows a malicious app with no permissions to write attacker-controlled files into Jabber's private data directory by exploiting the exported crosslaunch.share activity and an unsanitized display name from a ContentProvider used in file path construction. Attackers can craft a shared content:// URI with a display name containing '../' sequences to place fully attacker-controlled content within directories such as databases/, shared_prefs/, no_backup/, and files/ without user interaction.
