Two security related problems have been discovered in Mantis, a web-based bug tracking system. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  • CAN-2005-2556 A remote attacker could supply a specially crafted URL to scan arbitrary ports on arbitrary hosts that may not be accessible otherwise.

  • CAN-2005-2557

    A remote attacker was able to insert arbitrary HTML code in bug reports, hence, cross site scripting.

  • CAN-2005-3090

    A remote attacker was able to insert arbitrary HTML code in bug reports, hence, cross site scripting.

The old stable distribution (woody) does not seem to be affected by these problems.
