Severity:
Medium
Vendor:
Comersus Open Technologies
Software:
Tested on Comersus Cart 5.09
Previous versions may also be affected.
Remote:
Remotely executed from any web browser
Technical Details:
The unethical user is able to modify the parameters to change the pricing
before the order is processed through PayPal. This would allow the
unethical user to place a fraudulent transaction which many times isn't
caught until the product is already shipped OR the shopping cart owner is
charged a chargeback fee when refunding the order.
