kaMtiEz has discovered a vulnerability in the Survey Manger Component for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "stype" parameter to index.php (if "option" is set to "com_surveymanager" and "task" to "editsurvey") is not properly sanitised before being used in an SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.5.0 Stable Update 5. Other versions may also be affected.

Solution
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
