To: [email protected]Subject: Zen Cart login.php SQL Injection Vulnerability
Overview:
"Zen Cart≥ truly is the art of e-commerce; a free, user-friendly, open source shopping cart system."
Description:
An input validation vulnerability has been reported in Zen Cart, allowing a remote user to inject SQL commands.
The '/admin/login.php' file does not properly validate user-supplied input in the "admin_name" and "admin_pass" variables. A remote user can create a specially crafted HTTP POST request to inject SQL commands to be executed by the underlying database.
Affected:
Zen Cart version 1.1.2d.
Solution:
Edit source to ensure user-supplied input is correctly verified and filter malicious characters and character sequences in a HTTP proxy or firewall with URL filtering capabilities.
