Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in Joomla! 1.5.x before 1.5.22 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the (1) filter_order or (2) filter_order_Dir parameter in a com_contact action to index.php, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-4166. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely 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.
