Description

A vulnerability has been discovered in the iNetLanka Multiple root component for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose potentially sensitive information.

Input passed to the "controller" parameter in index.php (when "option" is set to "com_multiroot") is not properly verified before being used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources via directory traversal sequences and URL-encoded NULL bytes.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.1. Other versions may also be affected.

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