Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Bugzilla, which can be exploited by malicious users to bypass certain security restrictions or by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.

1) Input passed to certain unspecified parameters is not properly sanitised before being returned to a user when using "Format for Printing" or "Long Format" of a bug list. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

The vulnerability is reported in version 2.17.2 and later.

2) It is possible for users without the "canconfirm" privileges to put bugs in the "NEW" or "ASSIGNED" state via the XML-RPC interface.

The vulnerability is reported in version 3.1.3.

An issue that allows spoofing of the reporter of the bug when using email_in.pl has also been reported.

Solution:
Update to version 3.0.4, 3.1.4, 2.22.4, or 2.20.6.
