Hi there,
I'm having a big issue, when trying to remove an XElement from an XML file created in IsolatedStorage.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Code to CREATE the XML file
Dim File_to_Create As String = "Tracks.xml"
Dim file As XDocument = <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<dataroot xmlnsd="urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficedata" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="Cartridges.xsd" generated="2010-11-23T14:26:55">

<CART_COLOR>White</CART_COLOR>
</Carts>
<Carts>
<CART_NAME>Second</CART_NAME>
<CART_COLOR>Black</CART_COLOR>
</Carts>
</dataroot>
Dim isoStore As IsolatedStorageFile = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication()
Try
If isoStore.FileExists(File_to_Create) Then
MessageBox.Show(File_to_Create + " TRUE")
Else
MessageBox.Show(File_to_Create + " FALSE")
Dim oStream As New IsolatedStorageFileStream(File_to_Create, FileMode.Create, isoStore)
Dim writer As New StreamWriter(oStream)
writer.WriteLine(file)
writer.Close()
MessageBox.Show("OK")
End If
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
Finally
'open selected file
Dim isoStream As IsolatedStorageFileStream
isoStream = New IsolatedStorageFileStream(File_to_Create, System.IO.FileMode.Open, System.IO.FileAccess.Read, isoStore)
Dim XML_File As XDocument = XDocument.Load(isoStream)
Dim Cart_Query As System.Collections.IEnumerable = From query In XML_File.Descendants("Carts") Order By _
CStr(query.Element("CART_NAME")) Descending, CStr(query.Element("CART_NAME"))
Select New Class_Cartridge_Data With {.Cart_Name = CStr(query.Element("CART_NAME")), _
.Cart_Color = CStr(query.Element("CART_COLOR"))}
Me.ListBox_Cartridges.ItemsSource = Cart_Query
isoStore.Dispose()
isoStream.Close()
End Try
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Code to ADD / EDIT XElement
Dim File_to_Create As String = "Tracks.xml"
Dim XML_IsolatedStorage = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication()
' Check that the file exists if not create it
If Not (XML_IsolatedStorage.FileExists(File_to_Create)) Then
Return
End If
Dim XML_StreamReader As New StreamReader(XML_IsolatedStorage.OpenFile(File_to_Create, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
Dim XML_Document As XDocument = XDocument.Parse(XML_StreamReader.ReadToEnd())
XML_StreamReader.Close()
' Update the element if it exist or create it if it doesn't
Dim XML_XElement As XElement = XML_Document.Descendants("Carts").Where(Function(c) c.Element("CART_NAME").Value.Equals("First")).FirstOrDefault()
If XML_XElement IsNot Nothing Then
XML_XElement.SetElementValue("CART_NAME", "Third")
Else
' Add new
Dim newProgress As New XElement("Cartridges", New XElement("CART_NAME", "Fourth"), New XElement("CART_COLOR", "Blue"))
Dim rootNode As XElement = XML_Document.Root
rootNode.Add(newProgress)
End If
Using XML_StreamWriter As New StreamWriter(XML_IsolatedStorage.OpenFile(File_to_Create, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Write))
XML_StreamWriter.Write(XML_Document.ToString())
XML_StreamWriter.Close()
End Using
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now my issue and request for some help!
If I use
XML_XElement.Remove
then the following exception is raised whenever I try to "refresh" the bounded ListBox
System.Xml.XmlException was unhandled
LineNumber=37

In short, I can add or edit, but cannot DELETE an XElement...
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Can you post the code you are using for XElement.Remove and use code tags so the formatting is right. Its the # button on the post toolbar.

Well, I did nothing special, just the XML_Element.remove, instead of adding a new xelement.
Then the error raises whenever I try to reopen the XML file.
My point is, how can I delete an specific xelement?
As far as I know, the following code should work
Code:
Dim XML_XElement As XElement = XML_Document.Descendants("Carts").Where(Function(c ) c.Element("CART_NAME").Value.Equals("First")).Firs tOrDefault()
If XML_XElement IsNot Nothing Then
XML_XElement.SetElementValue("CART_NAME", "Third")
Else
' remove the selected record
XML_XElement.Remove
End If
Honestly I don't know if the foregoing code is correct or if the issue is related to how WP7 handles the removal thus corrupting the original file.
Please let me know if you need anything else.
Any help is very appreciated!
PS: Thanks for the other replies, helped a lot!
Here's how I did it in c#. My xml file is very different than yours so the query will be different but the important parts are where you load and close the file streams and then write.
Code:
//Get users private store info
IsolatedStorageFile isoStore = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication();
IsolatedStorageFileStream isoStream;
//open selected file
isoStream = new IsolatedStorageFileStream(list, System.IO.FileMode.Open, System.IO.FileAccess.Read, isoStore);
XDocument xml = XDocument.Load(isoStream);
isoStream.Close();
//Find section
XElement sectionElement = xml.Descendants("section").Where(c => c.Attribute("name").Value.Equals(groupn)).FirstOrDefault();
//Find item and remove it
sectionElement.Elements("setting").Where(c => c.Attribute("name").Value.Equals(litem)).FirstOrDefault().Remove();
isoStream.Close(); //Seems unnecessary but it's needed.
//Write xml file
isoStream = new IsolatedStorageFileStream(list, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write, isoStore);
xml.Save(isoStream);
isoStream.Close();
Thanks again for your help, greatly appreciated.
However I'm still getting the same error.
Sorry for asking, but are you getting any errors when deleting in WP7 ?
My knowledge on XML is extremely new and I'm sure that I'm making some mistakes somewhere...
But so far, I cannot get past the same exception.
Seems that the XML gots "corrupted" after the delete operation.
On the other hand, if is not too much to ask for, using my current code, how will handle the delete of the selected record?
Thanks!
I have no problem at all removing elements in c#. I don't have vb support even installed right now. If you think it's a bug you should post on the forums at http://forums.create.msdn.com/forums/98.aspx

Problem is my country is not listed so I cannot register...
Here is the C# version of my current code for adding/editing
Code:
public static void ADD_XML_Record()
{
string File_to_Create = "Tracks.xml";
var XML_IsolatedStorage = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication();
// Check that the file exists if not create it
if (! (XML_IsolatedStorage.FileExists(File_to_Create)))
{
return;
}
StreamReader XML_StreamReader = new StreamReader(XML_IsolatedStorage.OpenFile(File_to_Create, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read));
XDocument XML_Document = XDocument.Parse(XML_StreamReader.ReadToEnd());
XML_StreamReader.Close();
// Update the element if it exist or create it if it doesn't
XElement XML_XElement = XML_Document.Descendants("Carts").Where((c) => c.Element["CART_NAME"].Value.Equals("dd")).FirstOrDefault();
if (XML_XElement != null)
{
XML_XElement.SetElementValue("CART_NAME", "bbbbb");
}
else
{
// Add new
XElement newProgress = new XElement("Carts", new XElement("CART_NAME", "dd"), new XElement("CART_COLOR", "ff"));
XElement rootNode = XML_Document.Root;
rootNode.Add(newProgress);
}
using (StreamWriter XML_StreamWriter = new StreamWriter(XML_IsolatedStorage.OpenFile(File_to_Create, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Write)))
{
XML_StreamWriter.Write(XML_Document.ToString());
XML_StreamWriter.Close();
}
}
I tried your code but I'm having a bad time making it to work.
If not a big deal, please could you tell me how to modify it ?
I mean, if a record is found, instead of editing, to remove it?
Honestly I'm stuck and any help is more than apprecisted!

Ren,
Just to say thank you for your last code. I made a little mod and now it works ok!
Thanks a lot for helping me out!
WelcomeFirst I have to ask that everyone please follow the rules when posting in here.The last thread was shut down due to people getting off topic so let's stay on track here, if you have a question that you'd like to ask and are unsure if it belongs here then simply PM me and I'll help. In order to get things going I've added a simple FAQ below for people who may not be up to speed.
Q: What's needed to root the N910A/N910V?
A: A kernel exploit and an Android OS exploit.
Q: What's the current status?
A: We have a kernel exploit that will work for us and the method to implement it. Our next goal is to apply an Android exploit which will grant us System UID in order to apply our kernel exploit and write root.
Q: What exploit are we using for the kernel side?
A. The exploit will be the work of @zxz0O0 and is based off of CVE-2014-4322. This is confirmed NOT patched by Samsung.
Q: What exploit are we using for Android side?
A. Current target is CVE-2015-1474. We've explored a previous exploit which has proven to work for the Sony Z3 (CVE-2014-7911), but unfortunately Samsung fixed this prior to releasing our devices.
Current Focus - Creating an APK that will exploit CVE-2015-1474 to elevate us to System UID. This is where we are at this current time. We will need a crafty Dev to come up with such APK. I am a novice when it comes to scripting and exploiting but in my free time I've been soaking up as much information as I possibly can to help in the future.

@ZPaul2Fresh8 confirmed that CVE-2014-4322 (qseecom) is fixed in N910AUCU1BNK3 but it might not be in N910AUCU1ANIE.

To clarify, CVE-2014-4322 is NOT patched in ANY baseband version on our devices. CVE-2014-7911 is the patched.

Its not obfuscated if you think about file called "main"! It is 7z archive but removed first 2 bytes "7z" or hex "377A", just simple open "main" file with hex editor and append 2 bytes 37 7A to the start of the file and save them! It is password protected 7z archive and you must research for password in asembly if you think to open them with 7z I stil have no idea what is purpose of these "main" file (malware?) when there is another one "main" file (tar.gz) which is extracted when you execute file "a", but I know thats a two diferent "main" files!

From @idler1984 , here's the explanation of the 'a' and 'main' files. HERE.

Not sure how to prove something that isn't there... hard to prove a negative. APK is claiming not vulnerable even with the apparent absence of checkAndGetTcObjectClass in the firmware. Someone much smarter than me can attempt to find out why My bet is on @android-DEP ... see post above regarding ServiceExploitActivity.java.

It's been confirmed by me that exploit CVE-2014-7911 has been patched in the latest OTA (NK3 on AT&T) and I believe @zxz0O0 confirmed it on the earlier baseband too. If you're in doubt and you're running the earlier build, just go to system/framework/core.odex and you'll find the function is located there...
Now if you're just skimming through here let me catch everyone up to speed here;
At this point in order to achieve root for our devices we will need a combination of exploits. There are a ton of CVE's being thrown and I can see why people are getting confused so I'll try to make it easier to understand. I'll break it down by CVE #.
CVE-2014-7911 - Patched so it doesn't matter. Android OS exploit to gain System UID. Not Root
CVE-2014-8609 - Android OS exploit. Possibly our next venture for gaining System UID, I've been told otherwise. Another vulnerability exists that may be easier. CVE-2015-1474
CVE-2014-4322 - Kernel exploit. Un-patched. Used to get Root while in System status.
So we need an exploit to get us System status and from there we pretty much have CVE-2014-4322 exploit to get Root from there.
Now, you may have read about Root solutions such as geifroot & 2014-79xx but forget about them because they are all based on Team Keen's exploit of CVE-2014-7911 which we confirmed has been backported and patched from day 1 on our devices. So in order to proceed we need a new exploit to get System status first... that vulnerability may be 2015-1474....
ZPaul2Fresh8, thanks for this write up. Finally someone who has understood the situation. I'm not really experienced in Java but I believe CVE-2014-8609 will not be useful. This exploit is for broadcasting actions to apps (e.g. dialing), not executing shell commands or binaries.

I understand, but what are the possible Broadcasts at our disposal? Whatever broadcast we send will be of System UID so maybe we can find something if we look hard enough?
I have Liang Chen (Team Keen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pwn2Own#Contest_2014)) looking into CVE-2014-8609 to see if we can achieve System UID.

Guys, CVE-2014-4322 root exploit from retme7 is not working, it need a lot of modifications, I am working on this 3 days and I am on 90 percent of luck, I am now stuck with this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58460530&postcount=1171

Making CVE-2014-4322 a universal one would be quite challenging since it provides write-anywhere without read. It is almost impossible to avoid hard coded offsets. It would be great if there is another read and write anywhere flaw which requires system priv.

Okay I decided to try to invoke the android terminal intent to open a new terminal window as a system user. it doesn't work for me but other people on preOTA may be able to get it to work. I disabled the factory reset crap so don't worry about accidently factory resetting your device (like I did to my tablet before I disabled them). You will need to install the android terminal emulator app from the play store prior to opening this app and clicking the button. if you get a terminal window open type whoami and post a screenshot please. If not a simple post saying it doesn't work is fine.

You can decompile settings.apk and search in src/com/android/settings/accounts/AddAccountSettings.smali to see if it is patched or not.
Hey I know it's already been stated but I wanted to confirm for myself. Confirmed... The string "checkAndGetTcObjectClass" exists in system.img.ext4 from NI1 that i pulled off of sammobile.com http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/38838/N910VVRU1ANI1_N910VVZW1ANI1_VZW.zip/. Screenshot below.

Hi, I have implemented terminal emulator internaly into CVE-2014-8609.apk but from some unknown reasons it fail to start when I press "open terminal" button, I have spent 2 hours with this and I am lazy to debug more, sorry, try to decompile mine apk and fix it! Interesting thing I can start internal terminal emulator by command: "am start -n com.example.android.samplesync/jackpal.androidterm.Term", but clicking on button it no want to start

I don't understand it. I'm passing the intent the same way the sms intent and format interested t is passed back to the pending intent. It's just not working. I'm trying to make a service to hand it off to withing the app so that once it's intent is hit I can keep it alive in the background service, and then pull it back into the foreground to use it. In theory this should work even though the originating pending intent is killed shortly after the button press.

Yes strange, when I click on "open terminal" it open settings, another clicks doing nothing until I kill app and lunch again, strange. Maybe we need to look into terminal emulator for this? I have no time now, but you can try to open another app?
It open com.google.android.c2dm.intent sucesfully but no terminal emulator, I don't know why.

Your correct, I wonder if terminal emulator has been patched to prevent the broadAnywhere bug from launching it? If so then we need to find another terminal emulator that allows broadAnywhere to launch it with intents. Unless someone has time to search the terminal emulators source to figure out how it's been patched to prevent it..

I did some research and googled the CVE-2014-4322 exploit and I stumbled on a forum for the Sony Xperia for them to achieve root with that exploit - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3011598

Yeah that was covered 50+ pages ago. That's the kernel side of it, we know that will work but first we have to get through the Android side first. That's what 1474 should do for us.

This brings the next question.. An educated guess as to whether this will work with lollipop?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I would be curious about this also, but only after root is out for pre-Lollipop. The description says through 5.0, which sounds to me like 5.0 is vulnerable but who knows if 5.0.1 or 5.0.2 is. Also Samsung, as we've seen recently with the root that works on other phones using those two CVEs not working on our phones, will backport fixes. I don't know how much Samsung is still tweaking their Lollipop update, but since this seems like a small fix, my money would be on it being fixed in the Samsung Lollipop update.
Btw I've been trying to upload the contents of system.img.ext4 from the AT&T and Verizon tar md5 files to Google Drive for easy reference but it keeps timing out and I don't want to post something missing random files. I'll try with a specialized uploader tool later.
Also CVE-2015-1474 was updated on the 17th to say that it's network exploitable(!) and I guess they gave it a 10.0 score, the highest! This seems to be more serious than that last "worst android bug ever" recently used for root in the last year.
I sure hope whatever tool that gives root that comes out also applies a fix for this. I wouldn't want to walk around with it if I could help it.
So after a bunch of useless posts basically asking to confirm this or thanking that..at least we can count on qcom to brighten our day...

Would still require 1 or 2 additional vulns to exploit. Not so easy to get camera group in modern Android
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Correct me if I am wrong but camera group should actually be rather easy to take advantage of especially in modern Android. In June this last year the play store rolled out an update that groups all applications for security permissions, so in theory, any app in this group can be used to exploit the vulnerability found. Which means all apps that take picture or record audio are on the table as they are all lumped in together with the camera group.
Basic example of what apps like this can do now that they are grouped.
Camera/Microphone: An app that has permission to take pictures and videos (for example, a camera app) can now gain the permission to record audio. The app could listen to you when you use other apps or when your device’s screen is off.
If this is true than someone much smarter than me should have a lot to fool around with.

Ok I will. These "permission groups" from the play store have nothing to do with this. We are talking about a single android permission (android.permission.CAMERA) and a single linux group ("camera').
In 5.0, and many 4.x devices (i dont think it was all, it might have been all, i just dont care to find my notes, 10hr trip to take son to Dr and back, just got home and freaking tired) the linux group "camera" used in android was severed from the camera permission, declaring this permission does not put your user (app) into the camera group.
Simple test,
adb shell grep -A 10 -B 10 camera /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml
On blackphone (4.4.x), HTC Desire 510 (4.4.x) MotoX 2014 (5.0.x), the above command returned nothing.
One older devices, say 4.2.2 you would get teh following as the output:
<permission name="android.permission.CAMERA" >
<group gid="camera" />
</permission>
This means apps that are granded the permission, are put into the group "camera".
See:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/android-4.2.2_r1/data/etc/platform.xml
vs
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/android-4.4.2_r1/data/etc/platform.xml
What does this mean? You cant directly talk to what you need to to exploit those camera vulns, you would need to exploit mediaserver, or escalate to system first (Which means squat, if you are system you have 100 ways to root that are easier than these camera bugs). Also must not forget about SEAndroid, might put a snag into it as well, but like ive said I just saw these today, and have been home for a whole 10minutes so far today.

Depends on whether R.dimen.appear_y_translation_start is part of your module, or part of hooked package.
If it is part of hooked package resources you need to get it within hooked package context using proper identifier;
you cannot use identifier of resource you put in your module resources because it's completely different resource with different ID.
Example:
Code:
int resId = ctx.getResources().getIdentifier("appear_y_translation_start", "dimen", lpparam.packageName);
mStartTranslation = ctx.getResources().getDimensionPixelOffset(resId) * translationScaleFactor;
If this resource is part of your xposed module package, then you have to create package context using original context so you can get your module resources
which inherit proper display metrics from original package resources.
Code:
Context moduleContext = ctx.createPackageContext(myModulePackageName, Context.CONTEXT_IGNORE_SECURITY);
mStartTranslation = moduleContext.getResources().getDimensionPixelOffset(R.dimen.appear_y_translation_start) * translationScaleFactor;

Thanks, that works very well. Can you please also explain to me how I can retrieve value of attribute resources (I think that's what they are called) from the hooked package resources?
Code:
android:textColor="?android:attr/textColorSecondary"
I want to get this colour (as used in XML) so that I can do it in code
Code:
mEmergencyButton.setTextColor(color)
In case someone is looking for a solution to this
Code:
TypedValue outValue = new TypedValue();
mContext.getTheme().resolveAttribute(android.R.attr.textColorSecondary, outValue, true);
int[] textSizeAttr = new int[] {android.R.attr.textColorSecondary};
TypedArray a = context.obtainStyledAttributes(outValue.data, textSizeAttr);
int textColor = a.getColor(0, -1);
a.recycle();
mEmergencyButton.setTextColor(textColor);
mContext.getTheme().resolveAttribute(android.R.attr.selectableItemBackground, outValue, true);
mEmergencyButton.setBackgroundResource(outValue.resourceId);
Hello all,
Just curious about some general knowledge (salute; reference: HIMYM) on whether or not it's possible to see what an app is doing (during installation, in the background, app initialization, and foreground usage)
It's not my own app in question so I understand physically seeing the code is out of the question; however I'm more concerned about what the app is doing and the files/directories it accesses, and whether or not there's a way for me to view these activities.
If you must know, the app in question is the Adidas Confirmed app as RootCloak (and various other apps) DO NOT WORK. I'm attempting to isolate the issue, and I'm fairly certain it has to do with an external resource (within the device; i.e. different partition, files, folders, etc.) that permanently marks the device 'rooted' during initial installation. Maybe if I can see exactly what the app reaches out to, I can then come up with a fix action.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
You could try to decompile this app, but it might not work very well if the app obfuscates the code http://decompileandroid.com/

This actually worked PERFECTLY. I was able to go inside the src and see exactly the commands the app calls for to check root.
If anyone is interested...I'm going to try a few things out, play with some variables and see if I can't allow the app access on my rooted device.

There is a similar file also in the src using a different language I've not yet been able to comprehend. I'm really new at this in case you couldn't already figure lol...is it possible to view my device's database where apps store variables? It may be possible the app is permanently storing the variable even after its removal so best case would be to start from a fresh ROM install. Just a theory.
The other language is generally irrelevant
Delete /data/data/<packagename>/ or clear app data normally, that will work, no need for a fresh install.
