Detailed Description |
The Comersus BackOffice software is vulnerable to an authentication bypass vulnerability. Comersus Cart is a freely available shopping cart program for Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems. Comersus BackOffice Lite is a basic administrative utility for Comersus. Comersus BackOffice Lite and BackOffice Plus are vulnerable to an authentication bypass vulnerability, caused by improper filtering of user-supplied input to the 'adminName' and the 'adminpassword' parameters of the comersus_backoffice_menu script. This vulnerability could allow a remote attacker without knowing the administrator password to access the shopping cart menu and to execute commands as administrator.
