Description

Joomla! 2.5.x before 2.5.4 does not properly check permissions, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive "administrative back end" information via unknown attack vectors. NOTE: this might be a duplicate of CVE-2012-1599.

Solution(s)

  • joomla-upgrade-2_5_4

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
