Video Gallery component for Joomla! Local File-Include and SQL-Injection Vulnerabilities
The Video Gallery component for Joomla! is prone to local file-include and SQL-injection vulnerabilities because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit the local file-include vulnerability using directory-traversal strings to view and execute arbitrary local files within the context of the affected application. Information harvested may aid in further attacks. The attacker can exploit the SQL-injection vulnerability to compromise the application, access or modify data, exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database, or bypass the authentication control.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied data does not include malicious commands or SQL statements. It is also important to keep all software up to date, as vendors may release patches to address security vulnerabilities.
