VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Joomla! OrgChart (com orgchart) component version 1.0.0
Description A directory traversal issue exists in the OrgChart component for Joomla!, allowing remote attackers to read arbitrary files. This is achieved by including a .. (dot dot) in the controller parameter to the "index.php" endpoint.
Recommendations For version 1.0.0, consider restricting access to the "index.php" endpoint until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the controller parameter in the affected endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation.
