# DPCalendar (com_dpcalendar) 9.0 to 10.11.1 (Joomla 4 to 6) - Unauthenticated Blind SQL Injection [Joomla Vulnerability Database](https://mysites.guru/vulnerabilities/)/CVE-2026-57831 CVE-2026-57831HighCVSS 8.7CVE published 15 July 2026Added to mySites.guru 13 July 2026 # DPCalendar (com\_dpcalendar) 9.0 to 10.11.1 (Joomla 4 to 6) - Unauthenticated Blind SQL Injection DPCalendar on the Joomla 4 to 6 line (9.x and 10.x) contains an unauthenticated blind SQL injection in the front-end events model. The filter\_created\_by request parameter is placed into the events query without an integer cast (site EventsModel::getListQuery), so an anonymous visitor can inject boolean conditions and read arbitrary database contents including user password hashes and the Joomla secret through the public events feed at index.php?option=com\_dpcalendar&view=events&format=raw. No login, token or CSRF is required. It is a read-only injection (no write or RCE). All editions (Free, Pro, Business) share the vulnerable site model. The flaw dates to 8.18.0 and affects every current-line release up to and including 10.11.0. Fixed in 10.11.2, which integer-casts the author filter. Update to 10.11.2 or later; on the 9.x line the upgrade path is 9.x to 10.0.0, then 10.6.0, then 10.11.2. Joomla 3 (8.x) sites are handled by a separate rule (fixed in 8.19.4). Temporary mitigation: block non-numeric filter\_created\_by at the WAF, or unpublish DPCalendar front-end menu items. Discovered and reported by mySites.guru. Copy citation ## Is my site affected?
