Hi there,

i think the revised k2.js code occurs an unexpectedly security error or this error will be occured by another trigger.

After replacing the old k2.js code with the new k2.js code from github on k2 component, we've recognized that is possible for normal registered user to get access to the backend, although they have no perrmission to the backend access.

If a registered user edit an item on frontend and click on the close button, he will forwarded to the Joomla backend.
Its also possible if you set the "Access Administration Interface perrmission" for this user at backend on "Denied".

We use the latest Joomla version, Joomla 3.5.1, and K2 component, 2.7.

Do you have an idea to solve this issue?

Hello,

I do not think the redirection you are seeing is not happening from K2.
Furthermore the URL is index.php/item/add?tmpl=component, you are not getting redirected to the backend.

Which other extensions are you using?

Hi Krikor,

we don't use any other extensions. We use only K2. I recognized, that the trigger occurs, if i also logged in in the backend and write a new item in frontend in a new browser tab, click on save and than on close.

Hi,
Even though I agree with what Krikor mentioned I will try to reproduce the issue. Thank you for your report on this.
