Joomla! Component Store for K2 v3.8.2 – SQL Injection
A SQL injection vulnerability exists in Joomla! Component Store for K2 v3.8.2. An attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request to the vulnerable application in order to execute arbitrary SQL commands in the back-end database. This can potentially result in the manipulation or disclosure of application data.
Mitigation:
Developers should never construct SQL statements directly from user input. Instead, parameterized statements should be used in order to prevent SQL injection attacks. Additionally, input validation should be performed to ensure that only expected characters are accepted by the application.
