[BONSAI] SQL Injection in CS-Cart <= 2.0.5

Here is one of the vulnerabilities which I found during my research for Bonsai Security a few weeks ago. The research consisted of vulnerability assessing commercial and open source ecommerce web applications over a 2 week period.


During the time of my research I learnt a great deal from Andres Riancho (w3af/bonsai-sec owner) and from the vulnerability assessments them selves. So what did I learn? I learnt that patience is definitely a virtue, javascript is a pain in the ass, ecommerce web application developers need to invest more time on security and a lot more as regards to perfecting my assessment techniques.


Here is the vulnerability report:

Here is a great post by Andres on the difficulty on the actual exploitation:

A massive thanks to Andres for giving me the opportunity to work for him. I learnt more in the (just over) two week period working for him than I could have learnt in a whole 12 months.
