Re: Zen-cart Database Backup

The information described is NOT a vulnerability of Zen Cart itself.

The vulnerability is a result of the end-user taking incorrect actions.

Resolution:
a) always delete the zc_install folder after installation. This is required by the application, and the store admin will not function until you do.
b) don't delete the supplied .htaccess files; and host it on a server which properly respects .htaccess rules, as this will prevent unauthorized access of the .sql installation files.
c) there is no /admin/nav.html file in Zen Cart, so whatever has been altered to create that file and allow it to download other files is the result of some other vulnerability introduced to the server unrelated to Zen Cart.

Gaining access to the mysql_zencart.sql file is NOT a security risk. That file is freely available on the internet since the application is open source. There is no disclosure vulnerability with respect to that file. The file is only used for initial installation, and later deleted before using the software.
