CVE-2023-54357: Joomla com_booking 2.4.9 Information Disclosure via Account Enumeration
Joomla com_booking component 2.4.9 contains an information disclosure vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to enumerate user accounts by exploiting the getUserData function in the customer controller. Attackers can send GET requests to index.php with option=com_booking, controller=customer, task=getUserData, and an id parameter to retrieve user names, usernames, and email addresses through brute force enumeration.
Security readout for executives and security teams
A Joomla booking add-on can expose customer account details to anyone on the internet if version 2.4.9 is installed. The issue enables account enumeration, including names, usernames, and email addresses. That data can support phishing, credential attacks, and privacy incidents, but the bundle does not show confirmed active exploitation. Internet-facing Joomla sites running Artio com_booking, also referenced as Book-it, version 2.4.9 are the likely exposed population. Exposure is highest where the component is publicly reachable and contains real customer or account records. Prioritize within the current vulnerability cycle for any internet-facing Joomla site using this component. The main business risk is customer data exposure and follow-on phishing, not system takeover based on the supplied evidence. Mitigation focus: Inventory Joomla sites for Artio com_booking or Book-it version 2.4.9.; Check Artio and advisory sources for fixed versions or vendor guidance.; Upgrade if a vendor-supported fixed release is available..

CWE-203: Information exposure and cloud metadata lookup
Information exposure and SSRF weaknesses can make discovery, cloud metadata, and credential material review relevant. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.
