Joomla! Multiple SQL-Injection Vulnerabilities

Joomla! is prone to multiple SQL-injection vulnerabilities because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data before using it in an SQL query. Exploiting these issues could allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database.

Mitigation:

To mitigate these vulnerabilities, it is recommended to sanitize user-supplied data before using it in SQL queries. Additionally, keeping the Joomla! installation up to date with the latest security patches is advised.
