Synopsis |
| 16 |
======== |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Mantis is affected by multiple vulnerabilities ranging from information |
| 19 |
disclosure to arbitrary script execution. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Background |
| 22 |
========== |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Mantis is a web-based bugtracking system written in PHP. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Affected packages |

Description |
| 35 |
=========== |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Mantis contains several vulnerabilities, including: |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
* a remote file inclusion vulnerability |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
* an SQL injection vulnerability |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
* multiple cross site scripting vulnerabilities |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
* multiple information disclosure vulnerabilities |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
Impact |
| 48 |
====== |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
An attacker could exploit the remote file inclusion vulnerability to |
| 51 |
execute arbitrary script code, and the SQL injection vulnerability to |
| 52 |
access or modify sensitive information from the Mantis database. |
| 53 |
Furthermore the cross-site scripting issues give an attacker the |
| 54 |
ability to inject and execute malicious script code or to steal |
| 55 |
cookie-based authentication credentials, potentially compromising the |
| 56 |
victim's browser. An attacker could exploit other vulnerabilities to |
| 57 |
disclose information. |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
Workaround |
| 60 |
========== |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
Resolution |
| 65 |
========== |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
All Mantis users should upgrade to the latest version: |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
# emerge --sync |
| 70 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/mantisbt-0.19.3" |
| 71 |
