MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Credential Access The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | No special conditions - remote unauthenticated exploitation against default configurations of Cache Cleaner Pro extension for Joomla. The only requirement is that the custom query URL feature is active, which is likely the default state. |
| Impact | CVSSv3.1 rates this critical (9.8) with network attack vector, low complexity, no privileges, and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. EPSS is only 0.18%, indicating a low probability of real-world exploitation despite the high severity. SSVC finds no current exploitation but confirms the attack is automatable with total technical impact. The gap between the CVSS score and the low EPSS/SSVC exploitation signals suggests that while the vulnerability is severe, factors such as the product's install base or deployment context may limit its attractiveness to attackers. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker sends an HTTP request to the Joomla site with a custom query URL parameter pointing to an internal network resource (e.g., http://192.168.1.1/admin). The extension proxies the request, allowing the attacker to retrieve sensitive data or interact with internal services that are otherwise inaccessible from the internet. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 26, 2026
Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in Cache Cleaner Pro extension for Joomla 1.0.0-9.7.6 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to access internal or reserved network services via crafted custom query URLs. With a CVSS score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) the vulnerability is automatable and has total technical impact, though no public exploit or active exploitation has been detected. EPSS predicts a 0.18% likelihood of exploitation in the next 30 days.
RemediationAI
A specific patched version is not identified in the available intelligence; users should upgrade to a release newer than 9.7.6 if available from Regular Labs. In the interim, apply strict input validation to block user-supplied URLs that reference internal or reserved networks, disable the custom query URL feature if not essential, or implement network-level egress filtering for the web server to prevent outbound connections to internal ranges. Each mitigation may affect legitimate functionality and should be tested.
