Description:
K-sPecial has reported some vulnerabilities in iShopCart, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose potentially sensitive information and compromise a vulnerable system.
1) A boundary error in the "vGetPost()" function when handling POST requests can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow and may allow arbitrary code execution.
2) A boundary error within the handling of the parameter string received via a GET request can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow and may allow arbitrary code execution.
3) An input validation error within the handling of filenames received via GET requests can be exploited to disclose arbitrary files accessible by the web server process via directory traversal attacks.
Solution:
The vulnerabilities will reportedly be fixed soon.
Filter malicious characters and character sequences in a proxy or firewall with a URL filtering capabilities.
