This signature detects attempts to exploit a known cross-site scripting vulnerability in Zen Cart. It is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. Attackers can steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.
Zen Cart is prone to an arbitrary-file-upload vulnerability, a cross-site scripting vulnerability, and multiple HTML-injection vulnerabilities because the application fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input. Attackers can exploit these issues to upload and execute arbitrary PHP code in the context of the webserver process, steal cookie-based authentication information, execute arbitrary client-side scripts in the context of the browser, and obtain sensitive information. Other attacks are also possible. Zen Cart 1.3.9f and 1.3.9h are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
