COMMAND
CyberOffice Shopping Cart
SYSTEMS AFFECTED
CyberOffice Shopping Cart v2
PROBLEM
Following is based on a Delphis Consulting Security Advisory
DST2K0036. Delphis Consulting Internet Security Team (DCIST)
discovered the following vulnerability in CyberOffice Shopping
Cart v2 under Windows NT.
It is possible to modify the unit price of items as it is
submitted as a hidden field as part of the order form. By saving
a copy of the order form down locally and modify the value it is
possible to submit a order form with a zero or even negative price
value. Example:
<input type="hidden" name="Price" value="0">
The vendor solutions relies on referrers and is easily bypassed.
SOLUTION
Currently Delphis recommend the following: make transactions
non-realtime (i.e. Manual authorisation).
SmartWin is aware of the problem and has provided solution since
about 6 months ago. Under Global / System Settings of the Shop
Manager, you can set Authorized URL(s) to specify the Web sites
(folders) where the shopping pages reside. This effectively
stops the problem you reported in this article. Typically,
merchants will switch on the option for real-time services.
