/*
* Description:  Android 'content://' URI Multiple Information Disclosure Vulnerabilities
* Bugtraq ID:   48256
* CVE:          CVE-2010-4804
* Affected:     Android < 2.3.4
* Author:       Thomas Cannon
* Discovered:   18-Nov-2010
* Advisory:     http://thomascannon.net/blog/2010/11/android-data-stealing-vulnerability/
*
* Filename:     poc.php
* Instructions: Specify files you want to upload in filenames array. Host this php file
*               on a server and visit it using the Android Browser. Some builds of Android
*               may require adjustments to the script, for example when a German build was
*               tested it downloaded the payload as .htm instead of .html, even though .html
*               was specified.
*
* Tested on:    HTC Desire (UK Version) with Android 2.2
