Discussion

BeeHeard Components for Joomla! 'controller' Parameter Local File Include Vulnerability

The BeeHeard Lite 'com_beeheardlite' and BeeHeard 'com_beeheard' components for Joomla! are prone to a local file-include vulnerability because they fail to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to obtain potentially sensitive information and to execute arbitrary local scripts in the context of the webserver process. This may allow the attacker to compromise the application and the computer; other attacks are also possible.

BeeHeard Lite 'com_beeheardlite' 1.0 and BeeHeard 'com_beeheard' 1.0 are vulnerable; other versions may be affected.
