osCommerce Multiple HTTP Response Splitting Vulnerabilities

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
Checks for multiple HTTP response splitting vulnerabilities in osCommerce

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Summary :

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is susceptible
to multiple HTTP Response splitting attacks.

Description :

The remote host is running osCommerce, an open-source e-commerce
system.

The version of osCommerce on the remote host suffers from multiple
HTTP response splitting vulnerabilities due to its failure to sanitize
user-supplied input to various parameters of the
'includes/application_top.php' script, the 'goto' parameter of the
'banner.php' script, and possibly others. An attack can exploit these
flaws to inject malicious text into HTTP headers, possibly resulting
in the theft of session identifiers and/or misrepresentation of the
affected site.
