DESCRIPTION:
the_cyber_nuxbie has reported a vulnerability in the DT Register
component for Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to
conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "list1" parameter to index.php (when "option" is
set to "com_dtregister" and "task" is set to "category") is not
properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be
exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

The vulnerability is reported in version 2.7.13a. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Filter malicious characters and character sequences using a proxy.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
the_cyber_nuxbie.
