2. Reflected XSS

Description

The search echoes a keyword it retrieves via GET inside HTML tags. It removes
HTML tags from the keyword, but it does not encode quotes, which makes it
possible to break out of the context of the current attribute and add new
attributes. An attacker can use attributes such as onmouseover to execute
JavaScript.

To execute the code, the victim needs to hover over the title image, which an
attacker may for example achieve via ClickJacking.

Proof of Concept

http://localhost/ecommerce/CubeCart-6.0.6/search.html?search[keywords]=" onmouseover="alert('xsstest')" foo="&_a=category

3. Persistent XSS

Description

The page to edit user-submitted reviews echoes user input inside HTML input
tags without encoding quotes, which makes it possible to break out of the
context of the current attribute and add new attributes.

An attacker can use attributes such as onfocus to execute JavaScript. In
combination with autofocus, a victim does not need to actually interact with
the input field for the code to execute.

Proof of Concept

 1. Write a review here: http://localhost/ecommerce/CubeCart-6.0.6/
    test-category/test-product.html#reviews_write
 2. use as name or title: " autofocus onfocus="alert(1)" foo="
 3. Visit the review-edit site: http://localhost/ecommerce/CubeCart-6.0.6/
    admin.php?_g=products&node=reviews&edit=REVIEWID

4. Solution

To mitigate this issue please upgrade at least to version 6.0.8:
