Description:
Stack & Jadi have reported a vulnerability in the Bible Study component for Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.
Input passed to the "id" parameter in the Joomla! installation's index.php script (when "option" is set to "com_biblestudy" and "view" to "mediaplayer") 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. retrieving administrator usernames and password hashes.
The vulnerability is reported in version 6.0.7b. Prior versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Update to version 6.0.7c.
