A vulnerability has been identified in the "Rental Module" developed by a third-party for Ideasoft's E-commerce Platform. The vulnerability allows unrestricted upload of files with dangerous types, enabling attackers to perform command injection, use malicious files, and upload web shells to the web server.

Overview

This vulnerability (CVE-2023-2712) exists in the Rental Module of Ideasoft's E-commerce Platform and allows attackers to upload files without proper type restrictions. The lack of validation on uploaded file types enables malicious actors to upload dangerous files that can be used for command injection attacks. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to gain unauthorized access to the web server by uploading web shells, which could lead to complete system compromise. The vulnerability creates a significant security risk for e-commerce websites using the affected module, potentially exposing sensitive customer and business data.

Remediation

  2. Implement proper file type validation for all upload functionalities.
  3. Use content-type validation in addition to file extension checks.
  4. Implement server-side validation to ensure only allowed file types can be uploaded.
  5. Consider using a web application firewall (WAF) to provide an additional layer of protection.
  6. Regularly audit file upload directories for suspicious or unauthorized files.
  7. Apply the principle of least privilege to the web server and file system permissions.
  8. Monitor server logs for unusual file upload activities or execution attempts.
