A local file include vulnerability has been discovered in the official WiFiles HD v1.4 iOS mobile web-application. 
The local file include web vulnerability allows remote attackers to unauthorized include local file/path requests

or connected device components. 

The issue allows remote attackers to include local app path values or wifi web-server files. The exploitation appears 
on the application-side and the inject request method is POST. The exection occurs in the main index file dir list. 
The security risk of the local file include web vulnerability is estimated as high(+) with a cvss (common vulnerability 
scoring system) count of 7.0(+)|(-)7.1.

Exploitation of the local file include vulnerability requires no user interaction or privileged mobile application user account. 
Successful exploitation of the file include web vulnerability results in mobile application compromise, connected device compromise 
or web-server compromise.
