Description:
Ilya Sher has reported a vulnerability in Admin Access With Levels plugin for osCommerce, allowing malicious people to access administrative functions.
The problem is that it is possible to access scripts in the "admin/" directory by supplying any non-zero value to the "in_login" parameter.
Version 1.5.1 is reportedly vulnerable. Prior versions may also be affected.
Solution:
The developer of osCommerce responded that "we do not provide support for contributions" and that "contributions are used at own risk".
Protect "admin/" using .htaccess or similar.
Use another product.
