Descriptions

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Bugzilla 4.1.x and 4.2.x before 4.2.4, and 4.3.x and 4.4.x before 4.4rc1, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a field value that is not properly handled during construction of a tabular report, as demonstrated by the Version field.

Una vulnerabilidad de ejecución de comandos en sitios cruzados (XSS) en Bugzilla v4.1.x y v4.2.x antes de v4.2.4, v4.3.x y v4.4.x antes y v4.4rc1, permite a atacantes remotos inyectar secuencias de comandos web o HTML a través de un valor de campo que no se maneja adecuadamente durante la construcción de un informe tabular, como se demuestra usando el campo 'Version'.

The get_attachment_link function in Template.pm in Bugzilla 2.x and 3.x before 3.6.10, 3.7.x and 4.0.x before 4.0.7, 4.1.x and 4.2.x before 4.2.2, and 4.3.x before 4.3.2 does not check whether an attachment is private before presenting the attachment description within a public comment, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive description information by reading a comment. Auth/Verify/LDAP.pm in Bugzilla 2.x and 3.x before 3.6.11, 3.7.x and 4.0.x before 4.0.8, 4.1.x and 4.2.x before 4.2.3, and 4.3.x before 4.3.3 does not restrict the characters in a username, which might allow remote attackers to inject data into an LDAP directory via a crafted login attempt. Various other issues were also addressed.
