Balbooa Forms (com_baforms) below 2.4.3.4 - Unauthenticated PHP Code Injection (RCE), Local File Disclosure via Auto-Reply Attachments, Stored XSS and Attachment Deletion

Balbooa Forms before 2.4.3.4 (every release from 1.0.0 to 2.4.3.3, per the Joomla CNA) has five flaws, all reachable by an anonymous visitor through a public form. CVE-2026-102425 (CVSS 4.0 9.5): the optional post-submission PHP action replaces field shortcodes with the raw submitted value before eval(), so a form that uses a PHP action with a visitor-supplied shortcode inside a double-quoted string allows remote code execution. CVE-2026-102424 (8.9): on a form with auto-reply and attach-uploaded-files enabled, a guest can submit a traversal filename such as ../../../../configuration.php and receive any file readable by the site in the auto-reply email. CVE-2026-101127 (8.6): the original upload filename is stored verbatim and rendered into the administrator submission view, giving stored XSS against administrators. CVE-2026-101112 (6.9): removeTmpAttachment deletes any attachment by ID without binding it to the uploader session. CVE-2026-101126 (6.9): final submission trusts client-supplied attachment filenames and display names, allowing cross-session claiming and tampering. Reported by Sergiy Tryzhychynskyi and Lukasz Rybak, coordinated by the Joomla Security Strike Team. Update Balbooa Forms to 2.4.3.4 or later and confirm the component reports 2.4.3.4. If a form sent attachments in auto-replies, rotate the database password in configuration.php. Versions below 2.4.3.2 are also affected by the earlier CVSS 10.0 Balbooa Forms advisories.
