Published in : Articles & Tutorials, CMS Security Updates

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.
