Description:
Sniper456 has discovered a vulnerability in the Custompages component for Joomla!, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information or to compromise a vulnerable system.
Input passed to the "cpage" parameter in the Joomla! installation's index.php script (when "option" is set to "com_custompages") is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local or external resources.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.1. Other versions may also be affected.
