Re: Joomla extension Easy Joomla Backup v3.2.4 database backup exposure

[David Jardin <david.jardin () community joomla org>]

It’s worth to mention that the extension has a default .htaccess file with a „deny from all“ in the backup directory, 
that will mitigate the described attack on pretty much any standard shared-hosting platform that I’m aware of.
