Synopsis
Joomla! 2.5.x < 3.9.20 Multiple VulnerabilitiesDescription
According to its self-reported version, the instance of Joomla! running on the remote web server is 2.5.x prior to 3.9.20. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.- A missing token check in the ajax_install endpoint com_installer causes a CSRF vulnerability.
- Missing validation checks at the usergroups table object can result into an broken site configuration. (CVE-2020-15699)
- A missing token check in the remove request section of com_privacy causes a CSRF vulnerability. (CVE-2020-15695)
- Internal read-only fields in the User table class could be modified by users. (CVE-2020-15697)
- Lack of input filtering and escaping allows XSS attacks in mod_random_image (CVE-2020-15696)
- Inadequate filtering in the system information screen could expose redis or proxy credentials (CVE-2020-15698)
Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
