Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
A security flaw has been discovered in iAI Lab PDF AI App 4.21.0 on Android. Impacted is the function getExternalCacheDir of the component chatpdf.pro. Performing a manipulation of the argument _display_name results in path traversal. The attack requires a local approach. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
AnalysisAI
Path traversal in iAI Lab PDF AI App 4.21.0 on Android allows a local low-privileged attacker to manipulate the _display_name argument within the getExternalCacheDir function of the chatpdf.pro component, enabling unauthorized file system access outside the intended cache directory. The CVSS 4.0 score of 1.9 reflects the strictly local attack surface and limited integrity and availability impact with no confidentiality breach. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Local access to the Android device is required (AV:L per CVSS 4.0 vector) - remote exploitation is not possible. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The aggregate risk is low. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker with local access to an Android device running iAI Lab PDF AI App 4.21.0 - such as a malicious co-installed application with appropriate invocation privileges, or a user with direct device access - crafts a `_display_name` value containing path traversal sequences (e.g., `../../sensitive_dir/file`) and passes it to the `getExternalCacheDir`-based file handling logic in the `chatpdf.pro` component. This causes the app to read from or write to file system locations outside its designated external cache directory. … |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch is available at the time of analysis; the vendor did not respond to responsible disclosure. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
