Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Joomla! com advertising component version 0.25

Description A directory traversal issue in the com advertising component allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files, and possibly have other unspecified impacts, by using a .. (dot dot) in the controller parameter to "index.php".

Recommendations For version 0.25, update the com advertising component to a version that fixes this issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the "index.php" endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the controller parameter in the affected endpoint until the issue is resolved.
