TITLE:
Joomla Online News Paper Manager Two SQL Injection Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA39536

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/39536/

DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Online News Paper
Manager component for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious
people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "cid" and "date_info" parameters to index.php
(when "option" is set to "com_jnewspaper") is not properly sanitised
before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate
SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation via the "date_info" parameter requires that
"magic_quotes_gpc" is disabled.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.0. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
