Can I get CVE-identifier for this issue?

"Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Joomla, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct SQL injection attacks.

Input passed via the "filter_order" and "filter_order_Dir" parameters
to index.php (e.g. when "option" is set to "com_weblinks",
"com_contact", or "com_messages") is not properly verified before being
used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by
injecting limited SQL code, which may result in e.g. information 
disclosure via database errors."

Vulnerable versions: 1.5.21 and all previous 1.5 releases
Solution: Update to 1.5.22 (or later)
