SQL Injection Vulnerability in Joomla! Controller Component
The Controller component for Joomla! is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in an SQL query. A successful exploit may allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database.
Mitigation:
To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to sanitize user input and use prepared statements or parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection attacks.
