Description |
| 35 |
=========== |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Multiple issues have been reported in Mantis: |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
* EgiX reported that manage_proj_page.php does not correctly sanitize |
| 40 |
the sort parameter before passing it to create_function() in |
| 41 |
core/utility_api.php (CVE-2008-4687). |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
* Privileges of viewers are not sufficiently checked before composing |
| 44 |
a link with issue data in the source anchor (CVE-2008-4688). |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
* Mantis does not unset the session cookie during logout |
| 47 |
(CVE-2008-4689). |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
* Mantis does not set the secure flag for the session cookie in an |
| 50 |
HTTPS session (CVE-2008-3102). |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Impact |
| 53 |
====== |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
Remote unauthenticated attackers could exploit these vulnerabilities to |
| 56 |
execute arbitrary PHP commands, disclose sensitive issue data, or |
| 57 |
hijack a user's sessions. |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
Workaround |
| 60 |
========== |
| 61 |
|
