Description:
l0om has reported a vulnerability in Cosmoshop, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks and disclose sensitive information.
Input passed in the administration login isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
This can further be exploited to access the administration section and disclose arbitrary files via the "file" parameter passed to bestmail_edit.cgi.
It has also been reported that passwords are stored in clear text inside the database.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 8.10.78. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
Restrict access to the administration login.
