Latest OPC crashes with latest AWO Coupon

[avkeele]

Hello,

After latest updates, using an AWO coupon crashes OPC into a Server Error page at https://www.certifiedinfosec.com/.

Current Versions installed:
Joomla 3.7.3
VM: 3.2.2
OPC: 2.0.340.070717
AWO Coupon: 2.5.8.1

Please advise.

Regards,
Allen

hello allen, we tested the case on our demos and we found that awo coupons is doing infinite recursion.

to fix this when using OPC i suggest to comment line 118 in :
\administrator\components\com_awocoupon\helpers\estore\virtuemart\couponhandler.php

so it's fully commented like this:

Code: Select all

//stAn, commented next line since OPC always calls prepareCartData before using coupons:
//if (version_compare($instance->vmversion, '2.9.8', '>='))$cart->prepareCartData();


i already did this on your site. it seems that calling prepareCartData in core VM now calls all coupon functions as well and thus leading to infinite recursion.

since OPC calls prepareCartData before any calculation, this function is not needed when used with OPC - i did not test other cases....

best regards, stan
