DESCRIPTION:
Morgan has discovered a vulnerability in the joomlaradio component
for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose
sensitive information or to compromise a vulnerable system.

Input passed to the "mosConfig_live_site" parameter in
admin.joomlaradiov5.php is not properly verified before being used to
include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from
local or external resources.

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 5.0. Other versions may
also be affected.

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