CVE-2005-1564
CVE-2005-1565


Description:
Two weaknesses have been reported in Bugzilla, which can be exploited by malicious users to gain knowledge of sensitive information.

1) Users can determine whether or not a given invisible product exists, as an access denied error is returned when the user attempts to access a valid product.

Users can also enter bugs into products closed for bug entry, if a valid product name is known.

This weakness affects versions 2.10 through 2.18, 2.19.1, and 2.19.2.

2) A user's password may be embedded as part of a report URL, which causes it to be visible in the web logs.

This weakness affects versions 2.17.1 through 2.18, 2.19.1, and 2.19.2.

Solution:
Update to version 2.18.1.

The weaknesses have also been fixed in versions 2.16.9 and 2.19.3.
