1 technique across 1 tactic: Defense Evasion

The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up.

Exploitation Conditions

The affected site must have the OrdaSoft Touch Slider module (version below 5.4.6) installed and enabled so its modOsTouchSliderHelper::getAjax() handler is routed by Joomla's com_ajax dispatcher. No authentication, user session, CSRF token, or task parameter is required for the table-replacement path, so exploitation works against default configurations with the module present. The only real limiting factors are the presence/version of this specific module and that the image-deletion path relies on guessing sequential image IDs (trivial given their sequential nature); the destructive upload path has no such constraint.

Impact

This is a genuine access-control failure (CWE-284): the module's single AJAX handler, modOsTouchSliderHelper::getAjax(), is reachable through Joomla's core com_ajax dispatcher with no JFactory::getUser(), authorise(), or CSRF-token check, so the CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) is credible - remote, network-reachable, low-complexity, and fully unauthenticated. The most important signal is that the input's impact rating understates the described behavior: the vendor vector sets VI:L/VA:L, yet the description states the second path renames and replaces the ENTIRE #__os_touch_slider / #__os_touch_slider_text tables site-wide with attacker content, which is high-integrity destruction, not a low partial write - this discrepancy should be verified with the vendor. No EPSS score, KEV listing, or published POC is present in the input, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no evidence of active exploitation. Net priority: the vulnerability class is trivially exploitable and destructive, making it a real risk for any site actually running this module, but the overall fleet risk is moderated by the product's narrow deployment footprint and the absence of exploitation signals. Treat as a patch-soon item for affected sites rather than an emergency fleet-wide event.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A remote, unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted multipart POST containing a ZIP file to the site's com_ajax endpoint targeting the Touch Slider module helper; because no authentication or CSRF check runs, the handler renames and replaces the module's entire slider tables with attacker-supplied content. Alternatively a simple unauthenticated GET with a guessed sequential ID deletes individual slider images. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis, but the described request shapes are simple enough to weaponize quickly.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 07, 2026

Unauthenticated attackers can delete arbitrary slider images and replace the entire OrdaSoft Touch Slider database tables site-wide via the module's AJAX handler in versions below 5.4.6. The handler modOsTouchSliderHelper::getAjax() lacks any JFactory::getUser(), authorise(), or CSRF-token check, so exploitation requires no session or task parameter and works against default configurations where the module is installed and enabled. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: 5.4.6. Upgrade OrdaSoft Touch Slider to version 5.4.6 or later as the primary fix. If immediate upgrade is not possible, disable or uninstall the mod_os_touch_slider module to remove the vulnerable modOsTouchSliderHelper::getAjax() endpoint from Joomla's com_ajax dispatcher; this eliminates the attack surface but disables all slider functionality. As a compensating control, block or filter requests to index.php?option=com_ajax where the module parameter targets the Touch Slider (for example module=os_touch_slider) at the WAF or reverse-proxy layer. This may not cover every method name and could interfere with legitimate AJAX calls, so it should be a temporary measure until the module is patched or disabled. Ensure file uploads are validated server-side, but the version update or module removal is the definitive remediation. Monitor the vendor advisory at https://www.ordasoft.com/ for further guidance.

Technical ContextAI · show details

This is an improper access control vulnerability (CWE-284) in the Joomla extension OrdaSoft Touch Slider. Joomla's core com_ajax dispatcher routes AJAX requests to module helpers; the Touch Slider module registers a single handler, modOsTouchSliderHelper::getAjax(), for all data-management operations. That handler performs no authentication check, no authorisation check, and no CSRF token validation. Two confirmed impact paths exist: an unauthenticated GET request can delete any slider image by supplying a sequential image ID, and an unauthenticated multipart POST with a zip file can rename and replace the #__os_touch_slider and #__os_touch_slider_text database tables with attacker-supplied content, requiring no task parameter. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) and the independent CVSS 3.1 assessment (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L) both confirm remote, low-complexity, unauthenticated exploitation with high integrity impact from table replacement and low availability impact from image deletion. Affected CPE: cpe:2.3:a:ordasoft.com:touch_slider_extension_for_joomla:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* (all versions before 5.4.6).

DescriptionCVE.org

Joomla Extension - ordasoft.com - Unauthenticated Destructive CRUD in OrdaSoft Touch Slider < 5.4.6 - modOsTouchSliderHelper::getAjax(), wired through Joomla’s core com_ajax dispatcher, is the single handler behind every data-management operation this module exposes. No call to JFactory::getUser(), authorise(), or a CSRF token check exists anywhere in the handler. Two confirmed impact paths: an unauthenticated GET deletes any slider image by guessable sequential IDs, and an unauthenticated multipart upload with a zip file renames and replaces the entire #__os_touch_slider/#__os_touch_slider_text tables site-wide with attacker-supplied content, with no task parameter even required for the second path.
