Affected Systems: 1.0

Issue: Remote attackers can know the path of the site

Author: G00db0y@zone-h.org

Description

Zone-h Security Team has discovered a flaw in C-Cart Shopping Cart
v1.0. C-Cart is "a powerful yet simple shopping cart written in PHP 
with a MySQL database to store the product details".

It's possible to make a malformed http request for many files in
C-Cart Shopping Cart and in doing so trigger an error. 
The resulting error message will disclose potentially sensitive 
installation 
path information to the remote attacker.
