CVE-2025-24804

Mobile Security Framework (MobSF) is an automated, all-in-one mobile application (Android/iOS/Windows) pen-testing, malware analysis and security assessment framework. According to Apple's documentation for bundle ID's, it must contain only alphanumeric characters (A–Z, a–z, and 0–9), hyphens (-), and periods (.). However, an attacker can manually modify this value in the `Info.plist` file and add special characters to the `<key>CFBundleIdentifier</key>` value. When the application parses the wrong characters in the bundle ID, it encounters an error. As a result, it will not display content and will throw a 500 error instead. The only way to make the pages work again is to manually remove the malicious application from the system. This issue has been addressed in version 4.3.1 and all users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

Summary		(es) Mobile Security Framework (MobSF) es un framework automatizado y todo en uno para pruebas de penetración, análisis de malware y evaluación de seguridad de aplicaciones móviles (Android/iOS/Windows). Según la documentación de Apple para los identificadores de paquete, estos deben contener solo caracteres alfanuméricos (A–Z, a–z y 0–9), guiones (-) y puntos (.). Sin embargo, un atacante puede modificar manualmente este valor en el archivo `Info.plist` y agregar caracteres especiales al valor `CFBundleIdentifier`. Cuando la aplicación analiza los caracteres incorrectos en el identificador de paquete, encuentra un error. Como resultado, no mostrará el contenido y arrojará un error 500 en su lugar. La única forma de hacer que las páginas vuelvan a funcionar es eliminar manualmente la aplicación maliciosa del sistema. Este problema se ha solucionado en la versión 4.3.1 y se recomienda a todos los usuarios que actualicen. No existen workarounds para esta vulnerabilidad.
