RELEASE DATE:

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in the Comlantis Visitors Google
Map module for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to
conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "lastMarkerID" parameter to
modules/mod_visitorsgooglemap/map_data.php (when "action" is set to
"listpoints") 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 vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.0.1 Lite. Other versions
may also be affected.

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