According to an official announcement from the Joomla, an updated version of the software (Joomla! 3.6.4) will be available soon, which appears to fix an extremely critical security flaw.
The emergency update, Joomla! 3.6.4, is expected to be released tomorrow, Tuesday, October 25, at 14:00 (UTC).
Joomla website administrators should upgrade as soon as possible, as the Joomla! Security Strike Team (JSST) has been notified of a critical security issue affecting the core of the platform.
More information has not yet been released, but everything indicates that this is an extremely critical security flaw, which is why Joomla website administrators are advised to update their websites immediately after the release of the critical patch.
