Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2012-5522)

The vulnerability allows a remote #AU# to read and manipulate data.

MantisBT before 1.2.12 does not use an expected default value during decisions about whether a user may modify the status of a bug, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions and make status changes by leveraging a blank value for a per-status setting.


2) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2012-5523)

The vulnerability allows a remote #AU# to read and manipulate data.

core/email_api.php in MantisBT before 1.2.12 does not properly manage the sending of e-mail notifications about restricted bugs, which might allow remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information by adding a note to a bug before losing permission to view that bug.
