Title
Joomla Extension - OrdaSoft.com - Unauthenticated SQL Injection in OrdaSoft Joomla Gallery extension for Joomla < 6.2.7
Summary
Joomla Extension - OrdaSoft.com - Unauthenticated SQL Injection in OrdaSoft Joomla Gallery extension for Joomla < 6.2.7 - The extensions showSearchResult() and showSearchResultAjax() read the textsearch/searchText request parameter with $input->getVar(), which is not a real Joomla filter method and falls through to a filter that strips HTML tags but does not touch quotes or SQL syntax. The value is concatenated directly into a LIKE clause with no escaping. The endpoint requires no login of any kind: mod_osgallery_search is a public, commonly-published search box. Any anonymous site visitor can inject a UNION SELECT and read arbitrary database content.
