Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires only that the target Joomla site has the iCagenda extension installed at a vulnerable version (1.0.0-3.9.14 or 4.0.0-4.0.7) and exposes the file attachment feature of that component to the network - no Joomla account, user interaction, or non-default configuration is needed per CVSS AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N and the 'Authentication Bypass' tag. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Every signal in the input aligns on critical priority: CVSS 4.0 base 10.0 with AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N and high impact across both vulnerable and subsequent systems (VC/VI/VA/SC/SI/SA all High), the E:A (Attacked) threat metric asserting observed exploitation activity, and a CWE-284 root cause that is highly automatable. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An unauthenticated attacker browses to a Joomla site that uses iCagenda, opens an event submission or attachment form exposed by the extension, and submits a malicious file named e.g. shell.php containing a PHP webshell. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - neither the iCagenda site (https://www.icagenda.com/) nor the references (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-48939, https://vuldb.com/vuln/372536) list a fixed version, so administrators should monitor the vendor page for a release beyond 4.0.7 and update as soon as it is published. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Conduct inventory scan of all Joomla deployments for iCagenda 1.0.0-3.9.14 or 4.0.0-4.0.7; immediately disable the extension or block attachment upload endpoints at firewall/WAF level; review access logs for indicators of exploitation. …
