MantisBT 1.2.8 Released

Post by atrol »

MantisBT 1.2.8 is a security update for the stable 1.2.x branch. All
installations that are currently running any 1.2.x version are advised
to upgrade to this release.

Paulino Calderon from Websec, High-Tech Bridge Security Research Lab and
Paul Richards discovered 3 vulnerabilities:
- 1x local file inclusion (LFI)/directory traversal
- 2x cross site scriptin (XSS)

These vulnerabilities could have very severe consequences for users of
MantisBT, particularly as a result of the local file inclusion
vulnerability. If an attacker can upload their own PHP script to the
server as an attachment, they may be able to execute this script using
the LFI vulnerability.

Refer to issues #13191 and #13281 for detailed information:
