RELEASE DATE:
2010-08-06
DESCRIPTION:
Salvatore Fresta has discovered a vulnerability in the Appointinator
component for Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious users to
conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "aid" parameter to index.php (when "option" is
set to "com_appointinator" and "view" is set to "App") 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 1.0.1. Other versions may
also be affected.

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

RELEASE DATE:
2010-08-06
DESCRIPTION:
A weakness has been reported in the Graffiti Wall plugin for
JomSocial, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to
manipulate certain data and potentially gain escalated privileges.

The weakness is caused due to the plugin setting insecure permissions
(777) for the "images/graffitiwall/" folder its and subfolders. This
can be exploited to e.g. modify, create, or delete files contained in
the folders.

The weakness is reported in versions prior to 1.1.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.1, which sets permissions to 757. As this may
still be insecure, verify and set correct permissions manually.

RELEASE DATE:
2010-08-05
DESCRIPTION:
Salvatore Fresta has discovered two vulnerabilities in the PhotoMap
Gallery component for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious
users and malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

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

Successful exploitation requires "Public Front-end" permissions.

2) Input passed via the "folder" parameter to index.php (when
"option" is set to "com_photomapgallery" and "view" is set to
"imagehandler") 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 vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.6. Other versions may
also be affected.

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