Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Bugzilla, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks, and by malicious people to disclose sensitive information and conduct script insertion attacks.

1) Input passed to the "whinedays" parameter in "editparams.cgi" isn't properly sanitised before being used in a SQL query. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation requires administrative privileges.

The vulnerability has been reported in versions prior to 2.20.1 and 2.22rc1 (from version 2.17.1).

2) The problem is that some RSS readers decodes encoded HTML in feed titles. This can be exploited to inject arbitrary HTML and script code, which will be executed in a user's RSS readers session in context of an affected site when the malicious user data is viewed.

The vulnerability has been reported in versions 2.20rc1 through 2.20 and 2.21.1.

3) The problem is that users may send login requests to an incorrect web site when the URL contains a double slash in the path name.

Successful exploitation requires that the login page is a subdirectory of the web root and that the subdirectory is a resolvable address on the user's network.

The vulnerability has been reported in versions prior to 2.20.1 and 2.22rc1 (from version 2.19.3).

Solution:
Update to version 2.18.5 or 2.20.1.
