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.

Executive Summary

This is an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the SP Page Builder Joomla extension versions before 6.7.1. It occurs due to improper validation of the catid parameter in the loadMoreArticles endpoint, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL queries without authentication.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, check if SP Page Builder versions prior to 6.7.1 are installed. Inspect server logs for unusual SQL query patterns or errors related to the loadMoreArticles endpoint. Use tools like SQLMap to test for SQL injection by sending crafted catid parameters to the affected endpoint.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could exploit this to extract sensitive data from the database, modify or delete data, or gain unauthorized access to the Joomla site. Since it requires no authentication, any unpatched system is at high risk of compromise.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized data access or breaches, violating GDPR (data protection) and HIPAA (health data privacy) requirements. Organizations may face fines, legal penalties, and reputational damage if exploited.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update SP Page Builder to version 6.7.1 or later. If updating is not possible, disable the loadMoreArticles endpoint or restrict access to trusted IPs. Review and sanitize all user inputs, especially catid parameters, to prevent SQL injection.
