Title: 3D3.Com ShopFactory Shopping Cart Cookie Price Manipulation Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

ShopFactory is an e-commerce application for Microsoft Windows operating systems. It is distributed by 3D3.Com.

A problem with ShopFactory may make it possible for users to change prices on items.

When a user visits a site and creates a shopping cart, information on items added to the cart are stored in web cookies. The information stored in these cookies is later retrieved by ShopFactory and used to give the user the price on the item. Changing the information contained in the cookie could change variables quoted to the user by the ShopFactory site.

This vulnerability has been reported to allow the changing of prices. A malicious user could attempt to exploit this vulnerability to steal from e-commerce sites.

** It has been reported that ShopFactory 5.8 uses a form of encryption to encode values stored in cookies. However, as this encryption is performed on client-side, it is trivial to break the encryption. Thus it is still possible to manipulate the values of cookies.

Affected Products:

  • 3D3.Com ShopFactory 5.5.0
  • 3D3.Com ShopFactory 5.6.0
  • 3D3.Com ShopFactory 5.8.0
