Summary

TF Content for Joomla versions 2.9.0-2.9.4, from joomlafry.com, lack an authorization check in their public record controller (CWE-862). A guest can obtain a valid token from Joomla's public login form, then modify any TF Content record and mass-assign fields such as published, access, and created_by because the save controller does not filter submitted properties.

Description from the CNA

Joomla Extension - joomlafry.com - Unauthenticated cross-record publication and mass assignment in TF Content 2.9.0 - 2.9.4 - The extension unconditionally authorizes both creation and editing in its public `RecordController`. Its shared frontend save controller accepts the raw `jform` array, assigns the request-selected existing record ID, and saves it without filtering submitted properties through the configured form. A Guest can obtain a valid token from Joomla's public login form and modify any TF Content row, including mass-assigning `published`, `access`, and `created_by`.
