RELEASE DATE:
2010-08-18
DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in the onGallery component for
Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL
injection attacks.

Input passed via the "id" parameter to index.php (when "option" is
set to "com_ongallery" and "task" is set to "ft") is not properly
sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to
manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

NOTE: This can further be exploited to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks via SQL error messages.

The vulnerability is reported in version 2.0.1. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
