This signature detects attempts to exploit a known local file inclusion vulnerability in Joomla. It is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in the com_phocadownload component. A remote attacker can exploit this by enticing a target to open a malicious URL link. A successful attack can result in arbitrary code execution and loss of sensitive information.
