CVE-2026-64791HighCVSS 8.8CVE published 22 July 2026Added to mySites.guru 22 July 2026

# Regular Labs Extension Manager (com\_regularlabsmanager) <= 9.2.5 - Broken Access Control (unauthorised extension install/update/uninstall)

Regular Labs Extension Manager up to and including 9.2.5. Administrator routes and the install/update/uninstall processing did not consistently enforce component-management and installation permissions, so an unauthorised backend user, or a CSRF attack against a logged-in administrator, could install, update or remove Joomla extensions - which is a site takeover primitive. Also affected by CVE-2026-63265, missing CSRF tokens and permission checks on the shared Regular Labs AJAX endpoints. Fixed in the Regular Labs security release of 22 July 2026 (9.3.0). Update via Joomla Update or the Regular Labs Extension Manager.
