Multi-lingual E-Commerce System 0.2 Local File Inclusion Vulnerability

This bug allows a guest to include local files. The vulnerable code is present in the index.php file, which does not check the user input for the 'lang' parameter. This allows an attacker to include arbitrary local files on the system.

Mitigation:

Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied data is not used to include files from unexpected locations.

- [A] Local File Inclusion
 
[-] Risk: hight
[-] File affected: index.php
 
This bug allows a guest to include local files.
The following is the vulnerable code:
 
...
 
if (isset($_GET['lang'])) { $_SESSION['lang'] = $_GET['lang'];}
 
...
 
<?
include($include_path.'/inc/'.$_GET['page'].'-'.$_SESSION['lang'].'.php');
?>
 
...
 
 
- [B] Information Disclosure
 
[-] Risk: medium
[-] File affected: database.inc
 
This file contains reserved informations such as
the username and the password for connecting to
the database. Using .inc extension only, the 
content is visible.
 
- [C] Arbitrary File Upload
 
[-] Risk: medium
[-] File affected: product_image.php
 
In the admin directory there are no files that
check if the user has admin privileges. For this
reason a guest can execute the files contained in
this directory. product_image.php contains a form
that allows to upload files on the system but 
does not contain functions that check the files 
extensions, however a user can upload arbitrary 
files.
