CVE-2026-108827: Code Injection in Zen Cart
Description
CVE-2026-108827 is a low-severity code injection vulnerability in Zen Cart versions 2.2.0, 2.2.1, and 2.2.2. It affects the zen_call_function in the admin/includes/functions/general.php file, specifically the Administrative Module Management component. The vulnerability involves manipulation of the use_function argument, which could lead to code injection if exploited. However, exploitation is complex and requires prior control over the configuration table via SQL Patch tool or an existing SQL injection vulnerability. The vendor states this is not independently exploitable and no patch information is provided.

Technical Analysis
This vulnerability in Zen Cart up to version 2.2.2 allows potential code injection through the zen_call_function in the administrative module management. The attack vector involves manipulating the use_function argument, but exploitation depends on prior ability to control the configuration table entries, which is only possible through the SQL Patch tool or an existing SQL injection vulnerability. The vulnerability is considered difficult to exploit and is not independently exploitable. No known exploits are reported in the wild.
Potential Impact
If exploited, this vulnerability could allow an attacker to inject code remotely. However, due to the requirement of prior control over the configuration table via SQL Patch tool or an existing SQL injection vulnerability, the direct impact is limited. The CVSS score of 2.1 reflects a low severity with high attack complexity and required privileges. No known active exploitation has been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or fix is indicated in the provided data. Since the vendor states this vulnerability is not independently exploitable and requires prior access through other vulnerabilities or tools, remediation should focus on preventing or fixing any underlying SQL injection vulnerabilities and restricting access to administrative tools like the SQL Patch tool. Monitor vendor advisories for any updates regarding patches or official fixes.
