Joomla JE Quotation Form Component "view" File Inclusion Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA39832

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/39832/

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in the JE Quotation Form
component for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to
disclose potentially sensitive information.

Input passed to the "view" parameter in index.php (when "option" is
set to "com_jequoteform") 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.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.0b1. Other versions may
also be affected.

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