Joomla Extension - phoca.cz - Stored XSS via User-Agent header in Admin Order View in Phoca Cart 5.0.0-6.1.7

AnalysisAI

Stored XSS in Phoca Cart (Joomla extension by phoca.cz, versions 5.0.0-6.1.7) allows any unauthenticated network attacker to inject a persistent JavaScript payload via a crafted HTTP User-Agent header submitted during order creation. The payload is stored in the order database and executes in the Joomla administrator's browser when they open the Admin Order View, placing admin sessions at risk of hijacking or credential theft. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the target site runs Phoca Cart version 5.0.0 through 6.1.7 as a Joomla extension, and that the attacker can submit any request that creates an order - a capability available to any unauthenticated visitor to the storefront. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:L) captures the key risk profile accurately: the attack is network-reachable, requires no privileges, imposes no special attack requirements, and carries high confidentiality and integrity impact, with the sole friction being that an administrator must actively open the malicious order (UI:A). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An unauthenticated attacker submits a purchase on a vulnerable Phoca Cart storefront, setting the HTTP User-Agent header to a JavaScript payload such as a cookie-exfiltration script targeting document.cookie. When a Joomla administrator next opens the Admin Order View to process orders - a routine daily task - the stored payload executes silently in their browser, sending the admin's session token to an attacker-controlled endpoint. …
Remediation Check the vendor's official page at https://www.phoca.cz/phocacart for a patched release addressing this stored XSS; no specific fixed version number was confirmed in the available intelligence data, so administrators should monitor that page directly for an update beyond 6.1.7. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Audit recent orders for suspicious User-Agent headers and deploy WAF rules to sanitize or block script-like User-Agent patterns; restrict admin panel access to known corporate IP ranges. …
