  file include (LFI) vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

  An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to obtain potentially sensitive information and
  execute arbitrary local scripts in the context of the webserver process. This may allow the
  attacker to compromise the application and the underlying computer.

  com_jimtawl 1.0.2 is vulnerable, other versions may also be affected.");
