Discussion

MantisBT 'projax_api.php' HTML Injection Vulnerability

MantisBT is prone to a HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied data.

Successful exploits will allow attacker-supplied HTML and script code to run in the context of the affected browser, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user. Other attacks are also possible.

MantisBT versions 1.1.0a3 through 1.2.17are vulnerable.
