DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in JE Guestbook
component for Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to
conduct SQL injection attacks and disclose sensitive information.
1) Input passed e.g. via the "d_itemid" parameter to index.php (when
"option" is set to "com_jeguestbook" and "view" is set to
"item_detail") is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL
queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.
2) Input passed via the "view" parameter to index.php (when "option"
is set to "com_jeguestbook") is not properly verified before being
used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary
files from local resources via directory traversal sequences and
URL-encoded NULL bytes.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that
"magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.0. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised and
verified.

DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in the K2 component for
Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct script
insertion attacks.
Input passed via the "Name" and "Website" fields when making a
comment is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be
exploited to insert arbitrary HTML and script code which will get
executed in a user's browser session when the malicious data is being
viewed.
The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 2.4.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 2.4 or greater.

DESCRIPTION:
Salvatore Fresta has discovered a vulnerability in the TimeTrack
component for Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to
conduct SQL injection attacks.
Input passed via the "ct_id" parameter to index.php (when "option" is
set to "com_timetrack" and "view" is set to "timetrack") is not
properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
NOTE: Other parameters are reportedly also affected.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.2.3. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.

DESCRIPTION:
Jeff Channell has reported a security issue in the Mosets Tree
component for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious users to
compromise a vulnerable system.
The security issue is caused due to the application improperly
validating uploaded image files when creating a listing. This can be
exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code by uploading e.g. a GIF file
with embedded PHP code and an appended ".php" file extension.
The security issue is reported in versions prior to 2.1.6.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 2.1.6.
