DESCRIPTION:
H!tm@N has reported a vulnerability in the Mad4Joomla Mailforms
component for Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to
conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed to the "jid" parameter in the Joomla! installation's
index.php script (when "option" is set to "com_mad4joomla") is not
properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation allows e.g. retrieval of administrator
usernames and password hashes, but requires knowledge of the database
table prefix.

The vulnerability is reported in all versions prior to 1.1.8.2.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.1.8.2.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
