CVE-2024-34081: Mantis Bug Tracker (MantisBT) vulnerable to cross-site scripting

May 13, 2024

Improper escaping of a custom field’s name allows an attacker to inject HTML and, if CSP settings permit, achieve execution of arbitrary JavaScript when:

resolving or closing issues (bug_change_status_page.php) belonging to a project linking said custom field
viewing issues (view_all_bug_page.php) when the custom field is displayed as a column
printing issues (print_all_bug_page.php) when the custom field is displayed as a column
