Developers believed that our reported SQL Injection flaws are not fully exploitable because of Joomla! built-in string filters and were not fixed in 1.5.21 which is currently the latest version. As a result, we disclosed these flaws in order for someone who can exploit these flaws to the next maximum level. 2.
