Technical analysis, exploit verification, and patch instructions for CVE-2008-5825 impacting nokia 6131_nfc. Evaluated with CVSS Base Score of 2.6 (UNKNOWN).

Original NVD Description

Source: NIST NVD
The SmartPoster implementation on the Nokia 6131 Near Field Communication (NFC) phone with 05.12 firmware does not properly display the URI record when the Title record contains a certain combination of space, CR (aka \r), and . (dot) characters, which allows remote attackers to trick a user into loading an arbitrary URI via a crafted NDEF tag, as demonstrated by (1) an http: URI for a malicious web site, (2) a tel: URI for a premium-rate telephone number, and (3) an sms: URI that triggers purchase of a ringtone.
