Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Joomla! versions prior to 1.0.10

Description The issue involves multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities that allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML. This is achieved through unspecified parameters involving the (1) getUserStateFromRequest function, and the (2) SEF and (3) com messages modules.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.0.10, update to version 1.0.10 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the getUserStateFromRequest function, SEF, and com messages modules until a patch is applied. Avoid using unspecified parameters in these modules to minimize the risk of exploitation.
