Background ========== Mantis is a web-based bugtracking system written in PHP. Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 www-apps/mantisbt < 0.19.3 >= 0.19.3 Description =========== Mantis contains several vulnerabilities, including: * a remote file inclusion vulnerability * an SQL injection vulnerability * multiple cross site scripting vulnerabilities * multiple information disclosure vulnerabilities Impact ====== An attacker could exploit the remote file inclusion vulnerability to execute arbitrary script code, and the SQL injection vulnerability to access or modify sensitive information from the Mantis database. Furthermore the cross-site scripting issues give an attacker the ability to inject and execute malicious script code or to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, potentially compromising the victim's browser. An attacker could exploit other vulnerabilities to disclose information. 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-0.19.3" References ========== [ 1 ] Mantis ChangeLog http://www.mantisbt.org/changelog.php Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200510-24.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
