Detail

Synopsis

Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Mantis.

Background

Mantis is a PHP/MySQL/Web based bugtracking system.

Description

Antonio Parata and Francesco Ongaro reported a Cross-Site Request Forgery vulnerability in manage_user_create.php (CVE-2008-2276), a Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in return_dynamic_filters.php
(CVE-2008-3331), and an insufficient input validation in adm_config_set.php (CVE-2008-3332). A directory traversal vulnerability in core/lang_api.php (CVE-2008-3333) has also been reported.

Impact

A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary HTML and script code, create arbitrary users with administrative privileges, execute arbitrary PHP commands, and include arbitrary files.

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution

All Mantis users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/mantisbt-1.1.2"

Mantis contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands or code. The issue is due to the 'account_prefs_update.php' script not properly sanitizing user input, specifically directory traversal style attacks (e.g., ../../) supplied to the 'language' parameter. This may allow an attacker to include a file from the targeted host that contains arbitrary commands or code that will be executed by the vulnerable script. Such attacks are limited due to the script only calling files already on the target host. In addition, this flaw can potentially be used to disclose the contents of any file on the system accessible by the web server.
