CubeCart < 3.0.13 Multiple Vulnerabilities

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
Tries to read a local file in CubeCart

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Summary :

The remote web server contains a PHP application that suffers from
multiple vulnerabilities.

Description :

The version of CubeCart installed on the remote host fails to properly
sanitize user-supplied input to the 'gateway' parameter before using
it in the 'includes/content/gateway.inc.php' script to include PHP
code. An unauthenticated remote attacker may be able to exploit this
issue to view arbitrary files or to execute arbitrary PHP code on the
remote host, subject to the rights of the web server user id.

In addition, the application fails to initialize the 'searchArray' and
'links' array variables, which could be leveraged to launch SQL
injection and cross-site scripting attacks respectively against the
affected installation as long as PHP's 'register_globals' setting is
enabled.
