Picasa Component "controller" Local File Inclusion Vulnerability SECUNIA ADVISORY ID: SA39338 VERIFY ADVISORY: http://secunia.com/advisories/39338/ DESCRIPTION: A vulnerability has been discovered in the Picasa component for Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information. Input passed to the "controller" parameter in index.php (if "option" is set to "com_joomlapicasa2") is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources via directory traversal attacks. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.0.5. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly verified.
