Technical details
A lack of rate limiting and anti-automation controls was identified in the vendor login functionality (vendor.php) of CS-Cart version 4.18.3. The application does not implement CAPTCHA verification, account lockouts, or request throttling after failed authentication attempts. This allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to perform automated brute-force or credential-stuffing attacks. Successful exploitation can lead to full account takeover of vendor profiles. Mitigation involves implementing reCAPTCHA and account lockout thresholds.
