Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in index.php in the JFaq (com_jfaq) component 1.2 for Joomla!, when magic_quotes_gpc is disabled, allow (1) remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the id parameter, and (2) remote authenticated users with "Public Front-end" permissions to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the titlu parameter (title field). NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
