SOFTWARE:
Live Ticker 1.x (component for Joomla)
http://secunia.com/advisories/product/20871/

DESCRIPTION:
boom3rang has discovered a vulnerability in the Live Ticker component
for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL
injection attacks.

Input passed to the "tid" parameter (if "option" is set to
"com_liveticker" and "task" is set to "viewticker") is not properly
sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to
manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.0.0. Other versions may
also be affected.

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