Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Joomla! component swMenuFree (com swmenufree) version 4.6

Description: A remote file inclusion issue in the preview.php file of the swMenuFree component allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a URL in the mosConfig absolute path parameter. However, it's noted that a reliable third party disputes this issue because preview.php tests a certain constant to prevent direct requests.

Recommendations: For version 4.6 of the swMenuFree component, consider restricting access to the preview.php file to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, avoid using the mosConfig absolute path parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
