Category:  Application (Commerce)  >  Comersus Vendors:  Comersus Sophisticated Cart
Comersus Shopping Cart Discloses the Commerce Database to Remote Users
SecurityTracker Alert ID:  1007065
CVE Reference:  GENERIC-MAP-NOMATCH   (Links to External Site)
Date:  Jun 26 2003
Impact:  Disclosure of authentication information, Disclosure of system information, Disclosure of user information, Execution of arbitrary code via network, Modification of user information
Exploit Included:  Yes  
Advisory:  1ndonesian Security Team
Version(s): 4.29
Description:  1ndonesian Security Team (1st) reported several flaws in the Comersus shopping cart software. A remote user can view the shopping cart database. A remote user can also conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

It is reported that the default configuration installs the shopping cart database in a web server directory that can be accessed by remote users. A demonstration exploit URL is provided:

http://[target_site_with_shopping_cart_installed]/database/comersus.mdb

It is also reported that the comersus_message.asp script does not filter user-supplied HTML when displaying error messages. A remote user can create a specially crafted URL that, when loaded by a target user, will cause arbitrary scripting code to be executed by the target user's browser. The code will originate from the site running the Comersus shopping cart software and will run in the security context of that site. As a result, the code will be able to access the target user's cookies (including authentication cookies), if any, associated with the site, access data recently submitted by the target user via web form to the site, or take actions on the site acting as the target user.

A demonstration exploit URL is provided:

http://[target_site_with_shopping_cart_installed]/comersus_message.asp?messa ge=<script>alert('1st')</script>

The vendor has reportedly been notified without response.

Impact:  A remote user can view the shopping cart database contents.

A remote user can access the target user's cookies (including authentication cookies), if any, associated with the site running the Comersus software, access data recently submitted by the target user via web form to the site, or take actions on the site acting as the target user.

Solution:  No solution was available at the time of this entry.

The report indicates that, as a workaround to the database file disclosure flaw, you can use web server access controls to protect access to the shopping cart database file.

Vendor URL:  www.comersus.com/ (Links to External Site)
Cause:  Access control error, Input validation error
Underlying OS:  Windows (Any)
Reported By:  Bosen <mobile@bosen.net>
