A vulnerability has been reported in Joomla!, which can be exploited
by malicious people to bypass certain security restrictions and
conduct cross-site request forgery attacks.

requests without performing any validity checks to verify the
requests. This can be exploited to perform certain unspecified
actions by tricking a user into clicking a specially crafted link via
clickjacking.

The vulnerability is reported in versions 2.5.7 and prior.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 2.5.8.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
