Joomla Extension - cmsjunkie.com - SQL injection in trips search in J-BusinessDirectory < 6.2.3 - Search keywords and ORDER BY were concatenated into SQL. 6.2.3 quotes keywords and allow-lists the sort clause.
AnalysisAI
SQL injection in the J-BusinessDirectory extension for Joomla (by cmsjunkie.com) before version 6.2.3 lets remote attackers inject arbitrary SQL through the trips search feature, where user-supplied search keywords and the ORDER BY sort clause are concatenated directly into a query. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, score 9.3) indicates unauthenticated, low-complexity network exploitation with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the J-BusinessDirectory extension (version < 6.2.3) is installed on a reachable Joomla site and that the 'trips' search functionality is exposed to the attacker - the injectable inputs are the search keyword and the ORDER BY / sort parameter of that search. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuine high-priority issue rather than an inflated high-CVSS score. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An unauthenticated attacker browses to the site's J-BusinessDirectory trips search, then submits a crafted keyword or manipulated sort parameter containing SQL syntax (e.g., a UNION-based payload or a boolean/time-based ORDER BY injection). The application concatenates the input into its query, letting the attacker enumerate and exfiltrate database contents such as user credentials, or alter records. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: upgrade J-BusinessDirectory to version 6.2.3 or later, which quotes/escapes search keywords and allow-lists the ORDER BY sort clause; this is the definitive fix. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: inventory all Joomla installations and identify any using J-BusinessDirectory before version 6.2.3; immediately disable the extension or restrict network access to the affected search feature. …
