Synopsis
========

Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Mantis.

Background
==========

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

Affected packages
=================

     -------------------------------------------------------------------
      Package            /  Vulnerable  /                    Unaffected
     -------------------------------------------------------------------
   1  www-apps/mantisbt       < 1.1.2                          >= 1.1.2

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"
