Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions joomlaXplorer (com joomlaxplorer) versions 1.6.2 and earlier

Description A cross-site scripting (XSS) issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the error parameter in a 'show error' action to "index.php".

Recommendations For versions 1.6.2 and earlier, update to a version later than 1.6.2 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the 'show error' action in "index.php" to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the error parameter in the affected API endpoint until the issue is resolved.
