GHSA-6VFV-V5V8-QX7Q

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-06-05 15:31 – Updated: 2025-06-17 21:32

Details

A path traversal vulnerability in RSFirewall component 2.9.7 - 3.1.5 for Joomla was discovered. This vulnerability allows authenticated users to read arbitrary files outside the Joomla root directory. The flaw is caused by insufficient sanitization of user-supplied input in file path parameters, allowing attackers to exploit directory traversal sequences (e.g., ../) to access sensitive files

Severity ?

5.4 (Medium)
