A remote file inclusion vulnerability exists in the AroundMe component for Joomla! 1.5.0. The vulnerability is due to the application including a file specified in the language_path parameter of the connect.php script. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code by including a malicious file from a remote location.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied data is not used to include files from external sources.
