DESCRIPTION:
boom3rang has discovered a vulnerability in the Live Ticker component
for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL
injection attacks.

"com_liveticker" and "task" is set to "viewticker") is not properly
sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to
manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
