CriticalA PHP security release fixes two CVSS 9.2 flaws, and PHP 8.1 and older get no patchWhat it means for your site
CVE-2026-60033MediumCVSS 5.1CVE published 20 July 2026

JMedia (com_jmedia) <= 1.5.4 - Authenticated Arbitrary File Upload (RCE), SSRF and Stored XSS

JMedia (ThemeXpert Joomla Media Manager) versions 1.0 to 1.5.4 are affected by an authenticated arbitrary file upload leading to RCE (CVE-2026-60032, CVSS 9.4 Critical - executable/polyglot uploads, chmod did not strip execute bits), an SSRF via remote-URL download (CVE-2026-60033), and a stored XSS via unsanitised SVG upload (CVE-2026-60034). Fixed in JMedia 1.5.5. JMedia also ships bundled inside Quix Page Builder, where the same media-manager flaws were fixed in Quix 6.2.1/6.2.2, so sites running Quix below 6.2.2 are already flagged by the com_quix rule. Update JMedia to 1.5.5 or later (or Quix to 6.2.2+).

Is my site affected?

Affected
JMedia up to and including 1.5.4
Fixed in

What to do
