|
| Release Date |

|
| Criticality |
Moderately Critical
Typically used for remotely exploitable Denial of Service vulnerabilities against services like FTP, HTTP, and SMTP, and for vulnerabilities that allow system compromises but require user interaction.
This rating is also used for vulnerabilities allowing system compromise on LANs in services like SMB, RPC, NFS, LPD and similar services that are not intended for use over the Internet.
|
| Solution Status |
Unpatched
|
| Software |
Productbook 1.x (component for Joomla)
|
| Where |
From remote
"From remote" describes other vulnerabilities where the attack vector doesn't require access to the system or a local network.
This category covers services that are acceptable to expose to the Internet (e.g. HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP). It also covers client applications used on the Internet and certain vulnerabilities where it is reasonable to assume that a security conscious user can be tricked into performing certain actions.
|
| Impact |
Exposure of sensitive information
Vulnerabilities where documents or credentials are leaked or can be revealed either locally or from remote.
Manipulation of data
This includes vulnerabilities where a user or a remote attacker can manipulate local data on a system, but not necessarily be able to gain escalated privileges or system access.
The most frequent type of vulnerabilities with this impact are SQL-injection vulnerabilities, where a malicious user or person can manipulate SQL queries.
|
| Description |
A vulnerability has been discovered in the Productbook component for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks. Input passed to the "id" parameter in index.php (when "option" is set to "com_productbook") is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.0.4. Other versions may also be affected.
|
| Solution |
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
