SQL injection vulnerability in the JSupport (com_jsupport) component 1.5.6 for Joomla! allows remote authenticated users, with Public Back-end permissions, to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the alpha parameter in a (1) listTickets or (2) listFaqs action to administrator/index.php.
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.
