http://secunia.com/advisories/31686/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Security Bypass, Manipulation of data, Exposure of sensitive
information

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
CS-Cart 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/10325/

DESCRIPTION:
James Bercegay has reported a vulnerability in CS-Cart, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "cs_cookies[customer_user_id]" cookie is not
properly sanitised before being used in an SQL query in
core/user.php. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by
injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation allows bypassing the authentication or
disclosing sensitive information.

The vulnerability is reported in version 1.3.5. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Reportedly, the vendor has released a fixed version.
