DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in the astatsPRO component for
Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting and SQL injection attacks.

Input passed to the "id" parameter in

administrator/components/com_astatspro/getfile.php is not properly
sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to
manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

before being returned to the user. This can further be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in
context of an affected site.
