CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe Articles Anywhere and Users Anywhere extensions for Joomla are vulnerable to reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) due to improper handling of user input, allowing attackers to inject executable code into web pages. This vulnerability can lead to unauthorized actions being executed in the context of the user’s session, potentially compromising sensitive data or site integrity. Joomla administrators using these extensions should prioritize patching to mitigate the risk of exploitation.
Original NVD Description
Joomla Extension - regularlabs.com - Reflected XSS in Articles Anywhere extension for Joomla < 20.0.0, Users Anywhere extension for Joomla < 2.1.0 - Articles Anywhere Pro and Users Anywhere Pro return values from request-input data tags without making them safe for the context in which the tag is used. Joomla's string input filter does not make the same value safe for HTML text, an HTML attribute and a URL. A visitor-controlled request value can therefore become an executable URL or a new event attribute in output configured by a site author.
