An issue was discovered in OXID eShop 6.x before 6.0.6 and 6.1.x before 6.1.5, OXID eShop Enterprise Edition Version 5.2.x-5.3.x, OXID eShop Professional Edition Version 4.9.x-4.10.x and OXID eShop Community Edition Version: 4.9.x-4.10.x. By using a specially crafted URL, users with administrative rights could unintentionally grant unauthorized users access to the admin panel via session fixation.
Authenticating a user, or otherwise establishing a new user session, without invalidating any existing session identifier gives an attacker the opportunity to steal authenticated sessions.
| Name | Vendor | Start Version | End Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| Eshop | Oxid-esales | 4.9.0 (including) | 4.10.0 (including) |
| Eshop | Oxid-esales | 5.2.0 (including) | 5.3.0 (including) |
| Eshop | Oxid-esales | 6.0.0 (including) | 6.0.6 (excluding) |
| Eshop | Oxid-esales | 6.1.0 (including) | 6.1.5 (excluding) |
Such a scenario is commonly observed when:
In the generic exploit of session fixation vulnerabilities, an attacker creates a new session on a web application and records the associated session identifier. The attacker then causes the victim to associate, and possibly authenticate, against the server using that session identifier, giving the attacker access to the user’s account through the active session.
