Freestyle Support Portal Component for Joomla! 'prodid' Parameter SQLi

high Nessus Plugin ID 62938

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a PHP application that is affected by a SQL injection vulnerability.

Description

The version of the Freestyle Support Portal component for Joomla! running on the remote host is affected by a SQL injection vulnerability in the index.php script due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input to the 'prodid' parameter before using it to construct database queries. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue to manipulate database queries, resulting in disclosure of sensitive information, modification of data, or other attacks against the underlying database.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied on the component's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Freestyle Support Portal version 1.9.2.1484 or later.
