Description:
d3v1l has reported a vulnerability in the Pro Desk component for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information.

Input passed to the "include_file" parameter in index.php (when "option" is set to "com_pro_desk") is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources via directory traversal attacks.

This vulnerability is reported in versions 1.0 and 1.2. Other versions may also be affected.
