Background ========== Mantis is a web-based bugtracking system written in PHP. Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 www-apps/mantisbt < 0.19.2 >= 0.19.2 Description =========== Mantis fails to properly sanitize untrusted input before using it. This leads to an SQL injection and several cross-site scripting vulnerabilities. Impact ====== An attacker could possibly use the SQL injection vulnerability to access or modify 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. 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-0.19.2" References ========== [ 1 ] CAN-2005-2556 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-2556 [ 2 ] CAN-2005-2557 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-2557 [ 3 ] Secunia Advisory SA16506 http://secunia.com/advisories/16506/ Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200509-16.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.
