Joomla Fastball Component "league" SQL Injection Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA36878

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/36878/

DESCRIPTION:
kaMtiEz has reported a vulnerability in the Fastball component for
Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL
injection attacks.

Input passed via the "league" parameter to index.php (when "option"
is set to "com_fastball") is not properly sanitised before being used
in an SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by
injecting arbitrary SQL code.

The vulnerability is reported in version 1.2. Other version may also
be affected.

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