From Code to CVE: How DTS Solutions’ Abdul Wahab Exposed Four Critical Security Flaws in CS-Cart

Abdul Wahab, senior penetration tester at DTS Solution, has made significant contributions to global cybersecurity by discovering and responsibly disclosing four Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs). These discoveries – CVE-2025-50847, CVE-2025-50848, CVE-2025-50849, and CVE-2025-50850 – represent months of meticulous research and demonstrate our organization’s commitment to making the internet safer for everyone.

Targeting a Critical E-commerce Platform

Abdul’s research focused on CS-Cart, a widely adopted e-commerce platform that powers more than 50,000 businesses worldwide. This makes his discoveries particularly significant, as vulnerabilities in such a popular platform could potentially affect thousands of online stores and their customers.

The vulnerabilities Abdul uncovered span multiple attack vectors, demonstrating the comprehensive nature of his security analysis. His findings include file upload bypass vulnerabilities, admin account takeover flaws, and Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. This diverse range of security issues highlights how weaknesses can exist across both client-side and server-side components, creating multiple pathways for potential exploitation.

The Discovery Process

Security research requires patience, technical expertise, and an unwavering attention to detail. Abdul’s work exemplifies these qualities as he methodically identified vulnerabilities that could have serious implications for affected systems. Each CVE represents hours of careful analysis, testing, and documentation to ensure the findings meet the rigorous standards required by MITRE Corporation.

The path from initial discovery to official CVE publication involves multiple stages of verification. Researchers must first identify potential security flaws, develop proof-of-concept demonstrations, and then work with affected vendors to coordinate responsible disclosure. This process protects users while giving organizations time to develop and deploy security patches.

Understanding CVE Impact

These four CVEs join the comprehensive database maintained by MITRE, which serves as the authoritative source for known cybersecurity vulnerabilities worldwide. When security researchers like Abdul contribute to this database, they provide crucial intelligence that helps organizations prioritize their security efforts and protect their infrastructure.

A Personal Mission for Ecosystem Security

For Abdul, these discoveries represent more than professional accomplishments. As he stated, “For me, publishing these CVEs is not just about personal achievement but about contributing to a safer ecosystem through responsible disclosure.” This perspective reflects the true spirit of ethical security research, where the primary motivation is protecting users and improving overall security standards.

The responsible disclosure process Abdul followed ensures that CS-Cart had adequate time to develop and deploy patches before the vulnerabilities became public knowledge. This approach protects the 50,000+ businesses using the platform while still contributing valuable intelligence to the broader security community.

Our Team's Dedication

Abdul’s achievements reflect the broader culture at DTS Solutions, where technical excellence and security awareness are foundational principles. Our team members are encouraged to explore emerging technologies, investigate potential security implications, and share their findings with the global community.
