AI Analysis

Impact

ZeusCart 4.0 includes a cross‑site request forgery flaw that lets an attacker, by luring an authenticated administrator to a malicious site, submit crafted requests to the regstatus endpoint and permanently deactivate customer accounts. This loss of account access disrupts customer service and can damage the merchant’s reputation. The weakness is a CWE‑352 CSRF vulnerability.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects the ZeusCart e‑commerce platform, specifically version 4.0. Administrators who log into the backend are the primary exposed users. No other versions or products are listed as affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.9 indicates a moderate‑to‑high risk level. EPSS is not available, and the flaw is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting no widely known exploits as of now. The likely attack vector requires the victim admin to load a malicious page while authenticated, a scenario that only occurs when administrators use shared or unsecured browsers.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to the latest ZeusCart release that implements CSRF protection on all state‑changing admin actions, if one is available from the vendor.
  • Enforce the use of secure, non‑shared browsers for administrative sessions to reduce the likelihood that attackers can load malicious pages while an administrator is authenticated.
  • Implement or enable framework‑level CSRF protection for all state‑changing admin actions, ensuring each request includes a valid nonce or token that cannot be guessed.
