3DescriptionGitHub Advisory
CubeCart is an ecommerce software solution. Prior to 6.7.0, an Authenticated Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) vulnerability exists in multiple modules of CubeCart (including Email Templates, Invoices, Documents, and Contact Forms). The application unsafely evaluates user-supplied input using the Smarty template engine without enabling Smarty Security Policies. This allows any authenticated user with administrative privileges to execute arbitrary operating system commands (RCE) on the server. This vulnerability is fixed in 6.7.0.
AnalysisAI
Authenticated server-side template injection in CubeCart v6 prior to 6.7.0 allows administrative users to achieve remote code execution by injecting Smarty template syntax into multiple admin-facing modules including Email Templates, Invoices, Documents, and Contact Forms. The flaw stems from evaluating user-supplied content through the Smarty engine without enabling Smarty Security Policies, granting OS-level command execution on the underlying server. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated session with CubeCart administrative privileges (CVSS PR:H), network reach to the CubeCart admin panel, and the ability to save and render content in one of the Smarty-backed modules (Email Templates, Invoices, Documents, or Contact Forms) on a CubeCart v6 instance older than 6.7.0 where Smarty Security Policies are not enabled - the default configuration. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 9.1 score is driven by network attack vector, low complexity, no user interaction, changed scope, and total CIA impact, but PR:H tempers real-world risk because exploitation requires existing administrative credentials on the CubeCart instance. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker who has obtained CubeCart administrator credentials - via phishing, credential reuse, or a separate compromise - logs into the admin panel and edits an Email Template, Invoice template, Document, or Contact Form, embedding Smarty syntax that invokes PHP system functions. When the template is rendered (for example by triggering an order confirmation email or previewing the document), the server executes the attacker's OS commands under the web server account, enabling webshell deployment, database exfiltration, or pivoting. … |
| Remediation | Apply the vendor-released patch by upgrading CubeCart v6 to version 6.7.0 or later, which is the fix identified in advisory GHSA-pcfr-xgc9-xfv6 (https://github.com/cubecart/v6/security/advisories/GHSA-pcfr-xgc9-xfv6). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: Identify all CubeCart v6 installations and determine versions; restrict administrative access to affected systems to essential personnel only and increase monitoring of admin activities. …
