Checks for multiple vulnerabilities in eCommerce

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Summary :

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is affected by
multiple vulnerabilities.

Description :

The remote host is running eCommerce, a web-based shopping system from
Comdev.

The installed version of eCommerce permits remote attackers to control
the 'path[docroot]' parameter used when including PHP code in the
'config.php' script. By leveraging this flaw, a possible hacker may be able
to view arbitrary files on the remote host and execute arbitrary PHP
code, possibly taken from third-party hosts.

There is also a directory traversal vulnerability in the product
involving the 'wce.download.php' script, by which a possible hacker can read
the contents of arbitrary files on the remote host.
