osCommerce is a proven open source platform for the development and operation of online stores. It is used by companies and retailers worldwide and is characterized by its ease of use and extensive customization options. However, as with any e-commerce solution, osCommerce can have security risks that put your platform and customer data at risk.
The most common vulnerabilities in osCommerce include outdated add-ons and modules that can provide an attack surface for attackers. The platform is particularly susceptible to cross-site scripting (XSS), where malicious code is embedded in form fields or URLs, as well as SQL injections, which can penetrate databases via insecure user input. A lack of access restrictions to administrative areas or insecure API interfaces also pose a risk. Last but not least, the use of outdated or unmaintained themes and plugins increases the likelihood of security incidents.
Smart Lens offers a comprehensive solution to minimize these and other security risks. The software has been specially developed to detect vulnerabilities in osCommerce installations at an early stage and to suggest targeted measures for remediation. With automated security checks, Smart Lens continuously analyzes your platform for potential risks such as insecure modules, configuration errors or vulnerable interfaces. This allows you to act proactively and keep your online platform secure.
Thanks to an intuitive user interface, Smart Lens provides detailed reports, real-time notifications and clear recommendations for action to efficiently eliminate vulnerabilities. The software simulates possible attacks, prioritizes risks and gives you back control over the security of your platform. Smart Lens also checks connected systems such as databases and external APIs for vulnerabilities and supports you in complying with data protection guidelines such as the GDPR.
