Synopsis |
16 |
======== |

Bugzilla is vulnerable to cross-site scripting, script injection, and |
19 |
request forgery. |

|
21 |
Background |
22 |
========== |
23 |
|
24 |
Bugzilla is a bug tracking system used to allow developers to more |
25 |
easily track outstanding bugs in products. |
26 |
|

Description |
36 |
=========== |
37 |
|
38 |
The vulnerabilities identified in Bugzilla are as follows: |
39 |
|
40 |
* Frederic Buclin and Gervase Markham discovered that input passed to |
41 |
various fields throughout Bugzilla were not properly sanitized before |
42 |
being sent back to users (CVE-2006-5453). |
43 |
|
44 |
* Frederic Buclin and Josh "timeless" Soref discovered a bug when |
45 |
viewing attachments in diff mode that allows users not of the |
46 |
"insidergroup" to read attachment descriptions. Additionally, it was |
47 |
discovered that the "deadline" field is visible to users who do not |
48 |
belong to the "timetrackinggroup" when bugs are exported to XML |
49 |
(CVE-2006-5454). |
50 |
|
51 |
* Gavin Shelley reported that Bugzilla allows certain operations to |
52 |
be performed via HTTP GET and HTTP POST requests without verifying |
53 |
those requests properly (CVE-2006-5455). |
54 |
|
55 |
* Max Kanat-Alexander discovered that input passed to |
56 |
showdependencygraph.cgi is not properly sanitized before being |
57 |
returned to users (CVE-2006-5453). |

|
59 |
Impact |
60 |
====== |
61 |
|
62 |
An attacker could inject scripts into the content loaded by a user's |
63 |
browser in order to have those scripts executed in a user's browser in |
64 |
the context of the site currently being viewed. This could include |
65 |
gaining access to privileged session information for the site being |
66 |
viewed. Additionally, a user could forge an HTTP request in order to |
67 |
create, modify, or delete bugs within a Bugzilla instance. Lastly, an |
68 |
unauthorized user could view sensitive information about bugs or bug |
69 |
attachments. |
70 |
|
71 |
Workaround |
72 |
========== |
73 |
|
74 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
75 |
|
76 |
Resolution |
77 |
========== |
78 |
|
79 |
All Bugzilla users should upgrade to the latest version: |
80 |
|
81 |
# emerge --sync |
82 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/bugzilla-2.18.6" |
83 |
