"According to its self-reported version, the JoomGallery Plugin for 
Joomla! running on the remote web server is prior to 3.3.4. It is, 
therefore, affected by multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in
'/models/category.php' and '/models/detail.php' due to improper
sanitization of user-supplied input of the 'jg_firstorder', 
'jg_secondorder' and 'jg_thirdorder' parameters before using it to
construct database queries.

A remote attacker can leverage this issue to launch SQL injection
attacks against the affected application, leading to discovery of
sensitive information and attacks against the underlying database.");
