DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Map Locator
component for Joomla, which can be exploited by malicious people to
conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "cid" parameter to index.php (when "option" is
set to "com_maplocator" and "view" is set to "city", "country",
"sites", or "state") is not properly sanitised in
components/com_maplocator/models/city.php,
components/com_maplocator/models/country.php,
components/com_maplocator/models/sites.php, and
components/com_maplocator/models/state.php before being used in SQL
queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting
arbitrary SQL code.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 1.0. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
