CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe Modules Anywhere extension for Joomla, versions 1.5.0 to 9.0.5, is vulnerable to Local File Inclusion (LFI) and Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) due to its default configuration that allows arbitrary parameter replacement without proper authorization checks. This flaw can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive files or the ability to make network requests from the server, posing significant risks to the integrity and confidentiality of the affected systems. Joomla administrators and users of the Modules Anywhere extension should prioritize immediate remediation to mitigate potential exploitation.
Original NVD Description
Joomla Extension - regularlabs.com - LFI / SSRF in Modules Anywhere 1.5.0 - 9.0.5 for Joomla - Modules Anywhere Pro lets additional attributes on a module tag replace arbitrary parameters of the selected module. This feature is enabled by default in affected versions. The overrides are applied without checking who authored the content containing the tag. The security effect depends on how the selected module consumes the replaced parameter. Joomla's core Feed module provides a concrete affected path: its rssurl parameter is opened by the server and accepts local file: URLs as well as network URLs.
