Zen Cart Remote SQL Injection and Full Path Disclosure Vulnerabilities


Description   Multiple vulnerabilities were identified in Zen Cart, which may be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands or disclose sensitive information.
The first flaw is due to an input validation error in the "admin/password_forgotten.php" script that does not properly validate the "admin_email" parameter, which may be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
The second vulnerability is due to errors in various scripts when processing invalid parameters, which may be exploited by attackers to determine the installation path.
