CVE-2012-1792: Oscommerce Online Merchant

Low severity, CVSS 2.6. EPSS: 0.9% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in osCommerce/OM/Core/Site/Setup/Application/Install/RPC/DBCheck.php in OSCommerce Online Merchant 3.0.2, when the software is being installed, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the name parameter to oscommerce/index.php, which is not properly handled in an error message. NOTE: this might not be a vulnerability, since the ability to access oscommerce/index.php during installation may already imply administrator privileges.

Affected products

• Oscommerce Online Merchant: any version; up to and including 3.0.2; version 2.2 only; version 2.3.0 only; version 2.3.1 only
