CVSS 5.3 MEDIUMEPSS 99.8%● KEVCWE-284
In short

Joomla versions 4.0.0 through 4.2.7 have a flaw that fails to properly check user permissions on webservice endpoints, allowing unauthorized people to access them. This can expose sensitive data or allow attackers to perform unintended actions.

Technical detail

An improper access control vulnerability in Joomla webservice endpoints (CWE-284) permits unauthenticated or low-privileged attackers to bypass authorization checks and access protected API endpoints. The vulnerability affects versions 4.0.0 through 4.2.7; exploitation requires network access to the webservice endpoints with no additional authentication pre-conditions in certain cases.

Summary generated and translated by AI from the official description.
An issue was discovered in Joomla! 4.0.0 through 4.2.7. An improper access check allows unauthorized access to webservice endpoints.
