DESCRIPTION:
S@BUN has discovered a vulnerability in the jooget component for
Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL
injection attacks.

Input passed to the "id" parameter in the Joomla! installation's
index.php script (when "option" is set to "com_jooget") is not
properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation allows e.g. retrieving administrator
usernames and password hashes, but requires knowledge of the database
table prefix.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.6.8. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
