RELEASE DATE:
2010-08-11
DESCRIPTION:
Salvatore Fresta has discovered a vulnerability in the Teams
component for Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to
conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "PlayerID" parameter to index.php (when "option"
is set to "com_teams", "task" is set to "save", and "controller" is
set to "player") is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL
queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1. Other versions may also
be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
