Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires that the iCagenda calendar module (mod_icagenda_calendar) is installed and published on a Joomla site and that its AJAX handler is reachable through com_ajax - the intended default deployment for sites using the calendar widget. Per the description, no session, CSRF token, or account is needed, so there is no authentication or user-interaction barrier. The limiting factors are: the specific extension and its calendar module must be present (sites without iCagenda are unaffected), the module must be published/exposed on the front end, and the CVSS AT:P metric indicates a specific injectable parameter or input condition must be met for the payload to reach the vulnerable query.

Impact

The signals point to a genuine priority rather than an inflated high-CVSS issue: the CVSS 4.0 vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N (network, low complexity, no privileges, no user interaction), and the description independently confirms the 'no session, token or account' precondition, so the network/unauthenticated claim is corroborated by two sources. The one moderating metric is AT:P (attack requirements present), implying some condition on the injectable parameter, but this is a weak brake given the low complexity. EPSS data was not provided, and KEV status is negative, so there is no evidence of mass or active exploitation yet - this is exposure-driven risk, not observed-exploitation risk. The vendor-supplied subsequent-system impacts (SC:H/SI:H/SA:H) that drive the 9.2 appear aggressive for a web-app SQLi and should be treated cautiously; the primary, well-supported impact is confidentiality of the site database. No public exploit is identified at time of analysis, so weaponization risk is currently theoretical but low-effort given the flaw class.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker sends a crafted unauthenticated HTTP request to the site's com_ajax endpoint targeting the iCagenda calendar module, embedding SQL syntax in a module parameter. Because no session or token is required, the request is processed and the injected SQL executes against the Joomla database, letting the attacker enumerate and exfiltrate data such as user records or session/config values. No public proof-of-concept is identified at time of analysis, but the low attack complexity means a working exploit would be straightforward to build.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 14, 2026

SQL injection in the iCagenda event-management extension for Joomla lets remote unauthenticated attackers inject arbitrary SQL through the mod_icagenda_calendar calendar module, which is reachable via Joomla's com_ajax endpoint without any session, CSRF token, or user account. Affected versions run from 4.0.0 through 4.0.11, and the CVSS 4.0 base score of 9.2 (Critical) reflects high confidentiality impact with additional integrity and availability effects. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not in CISA KEV, but the trivial reachability makes it a strong patch priority.

RemediationAI

Upgrade iCagenda to a fixed release beyond the affected 4.0.0-4.0.11 range; the input does not state an exact fixed version, so the released patched version is not independently confirmed - consult the vendor at https://www.icagenda.com/ for the current release before deploying. Until patched, the most effective compensating control is to unpublish or remove the mod_icagenda_calendar module and, if the site does not otherwise need it, disable the com_ajax pathway to iCagenda (e.g., via a WAF/URL rule blocking requests to index.php?option=com_ajax with iCagenda module/plugin parameters), accepting that the front-end calendar widget will stop functioning. As a broader mitigation, place the Joomla site behind a WAF with SQL-injection signatures and restrict the CMS database account to least privilege so an injection cannot reach unrelated tables; note a WAF is signature-dependent and can be bypassed, so treat it as interim only.

Technical ContextAI · show details

iCagenda is a third-party events/calendar extension distributed for the Joomla CMS; the vulnerable code lives in the calendar display module mod_icagenda_calendar. The attack surface is Joomla's generic com_ajax dispatcher, which allows front-end AJAX calls into a module's helper without authentication when the module exposes an ajax handler. The root cause is CWE-89 (improper neutralization of special elements in an SQL command): user-controlled input reaching the calendar module is concatenated into a database query rather than being parameterized or type-cast, so an attacker can alter the query's logic. Because Joomla extensions share the site's single database, successful injection exposes any data reachable by the CMS database user.

DescriptionCVE.org

Joomla Extension - icagenda.com - Unauthenticated SQL injection in iCagenda < 4.0.0-4.0.11 - Unauthenticated SQL injection in mod_icagenda_calendar (iCagenda), reachable via com_ajax with no session, token or account.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

iCagenda extension versions 4.0.0-4.0.11 for Joomla contain an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability (CVSS 9.2) exploitable through the publicly accessible com_ajax endpoint, allowing attackers to extract or manipulate database contents without authentication. Any organization running affected iCagenda versions faces immediate risk of data compromise and database integrity violations. No vendor patch is currently available, making immediate compensating controls essential.

Business Impact: Severe
Compensating Controls

Disable mod_icagenda_calendar module immediately in all affected Joomla instances. Deploy WAF rules blocking com_ajax access to iCagenda components. Implement network-layer access restrictions to limit Joomla instance reachability. Enable database activity monitoring to detect anomalous SQL queries. Monitor vendor advisories and security channels for patch release; apply vendor patch immediately upon availability.
