"The version of MantisBT installed on the remote host is 1.3.0 or later but prior to 2.28.4. It is, therefore,
affected by a vulnerability:

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the admin Manage Configuration feature
    (adm_config_set.php). When setting a configuration value with a non-string type, the value is passed
    through ConfigParser -> Tokenizer, which calls eval() with a return prefix intended to prevent code
    execution. However, PHP hoists function and class declarations at compile time, even past a return
    statement. An attacker can define a class in the eval'd code that hijacks a class loaded later via PHP's
    autoloader, achieving arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2026-49273)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
