CVE-2026-49048 describes an SQL injection vulnerability in the JoomCCK extension for Joomla. The issue arises because a front-end controller task constructs SQL statements by directly concatenating user-supplied request parameters into the query string without escaping or using parameterized queries. This improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands (CWE-89) can lead to injection attacks. The affected versions are exactly 1.0 through 6.4.0. There is no CVSS score or vendor advisory indicating a patch or mitigation at this time.

An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious SQL code, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, modification, or deletion within the Joomla site's database. The exact impact depends on the database permissions and the queries affected but could compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data managed by the JoomCCK extension.

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should consider disabling the vulnerable functionality or applying custom input validation and sanitization to mitigate injection risks.
