Executive Summary

This is an Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the SP Property Joomla extension by joomshaper.com. It affects versions before 4.1.4. The flaw allows attackers to inject malicious scripts via unescaped output in frontend views and admin list tables. These scripts are stored on the server and executed when other users view the affected pages.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, inspect Joomla installations for the SP Property extension version 4.1.4 or lower. Check template files in frontend views and administrator list tables for unescaped output in HTML attributes or text values. Manually review files like those in com_spproperty or similar directories for direct variable output without htmlspecialchars or similar escaping functions.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could steal user sessions, deface websites, redirect users to malicious sites, or perform actions on behalf of users. Since it is stored, the impact persists until the vulnerability is patched or the malicious content is manually removed.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized data access or modification, violating GDPR's integrity and confidentiality principles. For HIPAA, it may expose protected health information to unauthorized parties, risking compliance with security requirements.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update the SP Property extension to version 4.1.4 or higher. If an update is unavailable, remove or disable the extension until a patch is released. Review and sanitize all user-supplied input and output in templates to ensure proper escaping. Monitor Joomla security advisories for further updates.
