Joomla! 'com_blog' Component 'id' Parameter SQL Injection Vulnerability

The 'com_blog' component for Joomla! is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data before using it in an SQL query.

Exploiting this issue could allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database.

Note: This issue may be related to the vulnerability described in BID 27971 (Joomla! and Mambo 'com_blog' Component 'pid' Parameter SQL Injection Vulnerability).
