Title
Joomla Extension - getk2.org - Privileged RCE vulnerability in K2 extension for Joomla < 2.26
Summary
The K2 article gallery upload path accepts a zip/tar archive, extracts it under `/media/k2/galleries/<id>/`, and only renames image files (gif/jpg/jpeg/png/webp) to safe names — non-image files (including `.php`) are extracted as-is and remain executable via direct HTTP access.

Title
Joomla Extension - getk2.org - Privileged RCE vulnerability in K2 extension for Joomla < 2.26
Summary
The K2 frontend article-attachment upload path accepts files whose extension is `.php`, and Apache's standard mod_php matches `\.php$` and executes them under the K2 web user. A K2 Author can upload a `shell.php`, then fetch `/media/k2/attachments/shell.php` and execute arbitrary PHP code in the web server's context.

Title
Joomla Extension - getk2.org - Exposure of sensitive files via attachment copy in K2 extension for Joomla < 2.26
Summary
The K2 frontend article-save handler accepts an `attachment[N][existing]` POST field that is concatenated with `JPATH_SITE/` and passed to `JFile::copy()`. `JPath::clean` does NOT strip `..`, and there is no allow-list of source paths. An Author can therefore copy `configuration.php` (or any other file readable by the web user — including `../../../etc/passwd`) into `/media/k2/attachments/`, then retrieve the contents via the K2 attachment-download endpoint.

Title
Joomla Extension - getk2.org - Authenticated user property mass-assignment in K2 extension for Joomla < 2.26
Summary
K2 ≤ 2.24 contains a mass-assignment defect in the K2 system user plugin `plg_user_k2`. A Registered Joomla user, by including the field `K2UserForm=1` in a standard `com_users` `profile.save` POST, can write arbitrary values into the `notes`, `image`, and `plugins` columns of their own row in the `#__k2_users` table — none of which are exposed by the K2 frontend profile-edit form.
CWE
  • CWE-915 - Improperly Controlled Modification of Dynamically-Determined Object Attributes — i.e. mass-assignment
