SQL Injection Vulnerability in Joomla Component

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted HTTP request to the vulnerable application. The attacker can inject malicious SQL queries in the vulnerable parameter and execute arbitrary SQL commands in the back-end database. This can be used to bypass authentication, access, modify and delete data from the back-end database.

Mitigation:

Input validation should be used to prevent SQL injection attacks. The application should use parameterized queries or stored procedures to prevent SQL injection attacks.
