Joomla S5 Clan Roster Component Two File Inclusion Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA39468

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/39468/

DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in the S5 Clan Roster
component for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to
disclose potentially sensitive information.

Input passed to the "controller" and "view" parameters in index.php
(when "option" is set to "com_s5clanroster") is not properly verified
before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include
arbitrary files from local resources via directory traversal attacks
and URL-encoded NULL bytes.

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