Exploitability

CWE

KEV Icon
CWE ID Description
CWE-89 The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
CWE-74 The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a SQL injection flaw in Zen Cart versions up to 2.2.2. It exists in the admin/modules.php file where the configuration parameter is manipulated to inject malicious SQL code. The issue arises because user input is directly used in SQL queries without proper sanitization.

Detection Guidance

To detect this SQL injection vulnerability in Zen Cart, inspect the admin/modules.php file for unsanitized POST array keys in the configuration update process. Look for direct use of $_POST['configuration'] values in SQL queries without sanitization or prepared statements. Check for the presence of the patch 08f572654edee1db8f9db091c9949825c6c69339 in the file.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary SQL commands on the database. This may lead to data theft, unauthorized modifications, or privilege escalation. Since it requires administrative access, the impact is limited to compromised admin accounts.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized data access or modification, violating GDPR's data protection requirements and HIPAA's safeguards for protected health information. Compliance may be compromised if sensitive data is exposed or altered.

Mitigation Strategies

Apply the patch 08f572654edee1db8f9db091c9949825c6c69339 to the admin/modules.php file to add input sanitization using zen_db_input() for SQL queries. Ensure all user-supplied inputs in database operations are properly sanitized. Restrict administrative directory access to trusted users only.
