RELEASE DATE:
2010-07-27
DESCRIPTION:
Salvatore Fresta has discovered a vulnerability in the TTVideo
component for Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to
conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "cid" parameter to index.php (when "option" is
set to "com_ttvideo" and "task" is set to "video") 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. Other versions may
also be affected.

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

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Salvatore Fresta aka Drosophila
