CVE-2025-62520: MantisBT unauthorized disclosure of private project column configuration
(updated )
Due to insufficient access-level checks, any non-admin user having access to manage_config_columns_page.php (typically project managers having MANAGER role) can use the Copy From action to retrieve the columns configuration from a private project they have no access to.
Access to the reverse operation (Copy To) is correctly controlled, i.e. it is not possible to alter the private project’s configuration.
