Descriptions

An XSS issue was discovered in admin/install.php in MantisBT before 1.3.12 and 2.x before 2.5.2. Some variables under user control in the MantisBT installation script are not properly sanitized before being output, allowing remote attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript code, as demonstrated by the $f_database, $f_db_username, and $f_admin_username variables. This is mitigated by the fact that the admin/ folder should be deleted after installation, and also prevented by CSP.

Se detectó una vulnerabilidad de tipo Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) en admin/install.php en MantisBT en versiones anteriores a la 1.3.12 y todas las 2.X anteriores a la 2.5.2. Algunas variables que están bajo el control de usuarios en el script de instalación de MantisBT no están sanitizadas correctamente antes de que se envíen, permitiendo a los atacantes remotos inyectar código JavaScript arbitrario, tal y como lo demuestran las variables $f_database, $f_db_username, y $f_admin_username. Esto se mitiga con el hecho de que se debería borrar la carpeta admin/ después de la instalación y se evita con una política de seguridad de contenido (CSP).
