The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'mantis' package(s) announced via the DSA-944-1 advisory. Several security related problems have been discovered in Mantis, a web-based bug tracking system, including missing input sanitizing, file upload size restriction bypass, SQL injection vulnerabilities, 'port injection' vulnerabilities in filters, CRLF injection vulnerability, cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities, disclosure of private bugs via public RSS feeds, and improper 'Make note private' handling during bug resolution, with unknown impact and attack vectors, probably related to an information leak. The old stable distribution (woody) does not seem to be affected by these problems. For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 0.19.2-5sarge1. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 0.19.4-1. We recommend that you upgrade your mantis package. Please install the updated package(s)

CVE-2005-4238

Missing input sanitising allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.

CVE-2005-4518

Tobias Klein discovered that Mantis allows remote attackers to bypass the file upload size restriction.

CVE-2005-4519

Tobias Klein discovered several SQL injection vulnerabilities that allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands.

CVE-2005-4520

Tobias Klein discovered unspecified 'port injection' vulnerabilities in filters.

CVE-2005-4521

Tobias Klein discovered a CRLF injection vulnerability that allows remote attackers to modify HTTP headers and conduct HTTP response splitting attacks.

CVE-2005-4522

Tobias Klein discovered several cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities that allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.

CVE-2005-4523

Tobias Klein discovered that Mantis discloses private bugs via public RSS feeds, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.

CVE-2005-4524

Tobias Klein discovered that Mantis does not properly handle 'Make note private' when a bug is being resolved, which has unknown impact and attack vectors, probably related to an information leak.

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

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 0.19.2-5sarge1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 0.19.4-1.
