Joomla JEEMA Article Collection Component "catid" SQL Injection

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA37865

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/37865/

DESCRIPTION:
Fl0riX has discovered a vulnerability in the JEEMA Article Collection
component for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to
conduct SQL injection attacks.

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

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.0.0.1. Other versions may
also be affected.

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