Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in file_download.php in MantisBT before 1.2.18 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a Flash file with an image extension, related to inline attachments, as demonstrated by a .swf.jpeg filename.

The remote web server is hosting MantisBT, an open source bug tracking application written in PHP.

Versions of MantisBT prior to 1.2.18 are affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple input validation errors exist that could allow cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2014-7146, CVE-2014-9271,  CVE-2014-9280, CVE-2014-9281)

  - An unspecified errors exist that could allow SQL injection attacks. (CVE-2014-9089)

  - Two unspecified errors exist that could allow information disclosure attacks. (CVE-2014-8553, CVE-2014-8988)

  - An error exists in the file 'gpc_api.php' that could allow an attacker to bypass authentication protections by using a password that starts with a NULL byte.(CVE-2014-6387)

  - An error exists in the 'XML Import/Export' plugin that could allow unauthorized attackers to upload XML files or obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2014-8598)

  - An error exists related to the CAPTCHA protection mechanism and the parameter 'public_key' that could allow security bypasses. (CVE-2014-9117)

According to its version number, the MantisBT application hosted on the remote web server is 1.2.x prior to 1.2.18. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple input-validation errors exist that could allow     cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2014-7146,     CVE-2014-8986, CVE-2014-8987, CVE-2014-9269,     CVE-2014-9270, CVE-2014-9271, CVE-2014-9272,     CVE-2014-9280, CVE-2014-9281)

  - Two unspecified errors exist that could allow SQL     injection attacks. (CVE-2014-8554, CVE-2014-9089)

  - Three unspecified errors exist that could allow     information disclosure attacks. (CVE-2014-8553,     CVE-2014-8988, CVE-2014-9279)

  - An error exists in the file 'core/string_api.php' that     could allow open redirect attacks. (CVE-2014-6316)

  - An error exists in the file 'gpc_api.php' that could     allow an attacker to bypass authentication protections     by using a password that starts with a NULL byte.
    (CVE-2014-6387)

  - An error exists in the 'XML Import/Export' plugin that     could allow unauthorized attackers to upload XML files     or obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2014-8598)

  - An error exists related to the CAPTCHA protection     mechanism and the parameter 'public_key' that could     allow security bypasses. (CVE-2014-9117)

Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Multiple security issues have been found in the Mantis bug tracking system, which may result in phishing, information disclosure, CAPTCHA bypass, SQL injection, cross-site scripting or the execution of arbitrary PHP code.
