Technical details

The vulnerability is an authenticated SQL injection in the plgContentSppagebuilder::onContentAfterSave() method. The plugin reads the jform[attribs][sppagebuilder_article_id] parameter from the request and concatenates it directly into a WHERE clause without quoting or type casting. Because Joomla's ARRAY input filter does not sanitize individual array element values, an attacker can deliver a complete SQL injection payload in a single POST field. The vulnerable code executes on every onContentAfterSave event before component-level access checks, allowing exploitation regardless of context. An attacker can perform time-based blind SQL injection to extract arbitrary database contents from tables such as #__users and #__session.
