I did a other scan ( I had more time now) and it found now twice as much security errors!
What I did:
I download the latest v3 version from here:
http://www.oscommerce.com/about/news,137

Did a fresh install, new DB, new subdomain.
Added the sample data.

After this I scanned it with Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner and it found the following security errors:

The scan time was:
1 hour and 8 minutes

It found:
284 - Cross Site Scripting vunerabilities
1 Interspire FastFind Cross-Site Scripting Vunerability
and 1 broken link

A detaild report can be downloaded here: (in PDF format)

I hope this is usefull and can be fixed soon!

Probably best you just paste the report in here rather than putting it up for download in that manner.
- Stop Oscommerce hacks dead in their tracks with osC_Sec (see discussion here)
- Another discussion about infected files ::here::
- A discussion on file permissions ::here::
- Site hacked? Should you upgrade or not, some thoughts ::here::
- Ignore this link - just a honeypot site to test my ideas out for osC_Sec and allow the site to be picked up by attackers.

Hi Niels..

Do any of the links in the report actually do anything? I tried several and nothing happened.

Kind regards,

Hi Harald,

I haven't tried any of them becouse I am not at home at the moment so can't "deep test" them. But meby some of them are falls positives

edit:
after testing I think it's the program that giving the fails positives.... meby it isn't working very well with php 5.x lol

A whitelist GET filter would stop this:

But this would bypass it:
