RELEASE DATE:

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in the En Masse component for
Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL
injection attacks.

Input passed via the "sortBy" parameter to index.php (when "option"
is set to "com_enmasse" and "controller" is set to "deal") is not
properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

The vulnerability is reported in version 3.0.3. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
No official solution is currently available.
