Exploitability
| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| CWE-89 | The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
Joomla Component eXtroForms version 2.1.5 has an SQL injection vulnerability. This means that authenticated attackers can manipulate certain parameters—specifically filter_type_id, filter_pid_id, and filter_search—by sending specially crafted POST requests to the extroformfield view. These malicious inputs allow attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands on the database.
As a result, attackers can extract sensitive information from the database and server by exploiting this flaw.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive database and server information. Attackers who exploit this flaw can retrieve confidential data, potentially compromising the integrity and confidentiality of your system.
Since the vulnerability allows execution of arbitrary SQL commands, it could also be used to manipulate or corrupt data, leading to data loss or service disruption.
