HTTP: Joomla Foto Component 'id_categoria' Parameter SQL Injection

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the Joomla Foto Component. It is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this issue by manipulating the SQL query logic to carry out unauthorized actions on the underlying database.

Extended Description

The 'Foto' component for Joomla! is prone to an SQL-injection vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in an SQL query. A successful exploit may allow an attacker to compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit vulnerabilities in the underlying database.
