Package : mantis Vulnerability : cross site code execution Problem-Type : remote Debian-specific: no Joao Gouveia discovered an uninitialized variable which was insecurely used with file inclusions in the mantis package, a php based bug tracking system. The Debian Security Team found even more similar problems. When these occasions are exploited, a remote user is able to execute arbitrary code under the webserver user id on the web server hosting the mantis system. These problems have been fixed in version 0.17.1-2.1 for the current stable distribution (woody) and in version 0.17.3-3 for the unstable distribution (sid). The old stable distribution (potato) is not affected, since it doesn't contain the mantis package. We recommend that you upgrade your mantis packages immediately. wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for sources.list as given below: apt-get update will update the internal database apt-get upgrade will install corrected packages You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the footer to the proper configuration.
