CVE-2026-102789
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.description
Gridbox for Joomla versions before 2.20.4.2 do not enforce the expected edit-level permission for a blog-post retrieval operation. An attacker able to invoke that controller task may access blog-post data without the intended authorization level.
mitigation
Upgrade Gridbox to version 2.20.4.2 or later. Until updated, restrict access to Joomla administration and editor-controller functionality to trusted users.
outcome
Check only, differential: the check fires on the vulnerable build and is silent on the patched one.
