Technical details

An unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability exists in AcyMailing versions 6.0.0 through 10.11.0 for both Joomla and WordPress. The flaw is located in a public front-end endpoint that accepts request parameters and inserts them directly into the column list of a SQL SELECT query without proper sanitization or quoting. While the extension utilized Joomla's standard text filter, this only stripped HTML and failed to neutralize SQL syntax. An attacker can supply crafted parameters to execute arbitrary queries, enabling the extraction of sensitive data such as the 'wp_users' or Joomla user tables. The issue is resolved in version 10.11.1.
