VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/17675/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting, Manipulation of data

WHERE:

DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Joomla!, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection or cross-site
scripting attacks.

1) Certain unspecified input is not properly sanitised before being
returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML
and script code in a user's browser session in context of a vulnerable
site.

2) Input passed to the "Itemid" parameter in the "mod_poll" module is
not sanitised properly before being used in a SQL query. This can
potentially be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.

3) Certain unspecified input passed to several methods in the
"mosDBTable" class is not sanitised properly before being used in a
SQL query. This can potentially be exploited to manipulate SQL
queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Note: An error that potentially allows the misuse of the Media
component file management functions has also been fixed.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.0.4.
