Multiple vulnerabilities were identified in Joomla!, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary scripting code or gain knowledge of sensitive information.

The first issue is due to an error when displaying vCards set to "hide" in the administrative properties, which could be exploited by attackers to bypass the "hide" function and retrieve users' vCards and email addresses.

The second issue is due to errors in the TinyMCE component, which could be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross site scripting attacks.
