Summary
mobile-icon-resizer resizes large images for use as icons for iOS and Android. mobile-icon-resizer has a code execution vulnerability in versions before 0.4.3. mobile-icon-resizer takes an options object as an argument to define the resulting icons as such: ``` var options = { config: './config.js' } resize(options, function(err){}); ``` config.js would need to be a file on the filesystem and look something like: ``` var config = { iOS: { "images": [ /* iOS image definitions are not vulnerable */ ] }, android: { "images" : [ { "baseRatio" : "console.log('Executing script as baseRatio property')", "folder" : "drawable-ldpi" }, { "ratio" : "console.log('Executing script as ratio property')", "folder" : "drawable-mdpi" }, /* other android image defintiions ... */ ] } }; exports = module.exports = config; ``` The parameters `ratio` and `baseRatio` are passed directly to `eval()`, thus allowing dynamic javascript payloads to be executed. ## Recommendation Update to version 0.4.3 or later.
