Discussion

Zen Cart Multiple Input Validation Vulnerabilities

Zen Cart is prone to multiple input-validation vulnerabilities because it fails to adequately sanitize user-supplied input. These vulnerabilities include local file-include, SQL-injection, and HTML-injection issues.

Exploiting these issues can allow attacker-supplied HTML and script code to run in the context of the affected browser, allowing attackers to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, view local files within the context of the webserver, compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database. Other attacks may also be possible.

Zen Cart v1.3.9f is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

Exploit / POC

The following example URIs are available:

SQL Injection:

http://www.example.com/admin/options_name_manager.php?option_page=1&option_order_by=/ [SQLi]

Local File Include:
