Updated 20 July 2026.
mySites.guru frequently publish articles warning Joomla! CMS users of security concerns.
Most recently they issued warnings about three compromised Third Party Extensions:
- DJ-Classifieds,
- Events Booking, and
- Gridbox.
How should you respond?
Check whether or not your website is using one of these compromised Third Party Extensions.
If it is then you should install the security fix issued by the developer.
Of course, your website may have already been compromised.
Visit the links below to the relevant mySites.guru Blog articles to learn more about:
- how to confirm whether or not your website has been compromised, and
- what corrective action can be taken if indeed your website has been compromised.
If you discover that your website has been compromised and are not sure how to respond, mySites.guru offer a rescue package.
