Bugzilla < 3.6.12 / 4.0.9 / 4.2.4 / 4.4rc1 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 62973

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a CGI application that suffers from multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

According to its banner, the version of Bugzilla installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- Due to incorrectly filtered field values in tabular reports, code can be injected, which could allow cross-site scripting (XSS). Note that this affects versions 4.1.1 to 4.2.3 and 4.3.1 to 4.3.3.
(CVE-2012-4189)

- When trying to mark an attachment in a restricted bug as obsolete, the description is disclosed in the resulting error message. Note that this affects versions 2.16 to 3.6.11, 3.7.1 to 4.0.8, 4.1.1 to 4.2.3, and 4.3.1 to 4.3.3. (CVE-2012-4197)

- When calling the User.get method with a 'groups' argument, the existence of the groups is leaked, which could allow an attacker to identify groups via an error message. Note that this affects versions 3.7.1 to 4.0.8, 4.1.1 to 4.2.3, and 4.3.1 to 4.3.3. (CVE-2012-4198)

- Custom field names are disclosed in the JavaScript code generated when the visibility of a custom field is controlled by a restricted product or component of a product. Note that this affects versions 3.3.4 to 3.6.11, 3.7.1 to 4.0.8, 4.1.1 to 4.2.3, and 4.3.1 to 4.3.3. (CVE-2012-4199)

- A vulnerability exists in swfstore.swf from YUI2 that could allow JavaScript injection exploits to be created against domains hosting the affected YUI .swf file. Note that this affects versions 3.7.1 to 4.0.8, 4.1.1 to 4.2.3, and 4.3.1 to 4.3.3. (CVE-2012-5883)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Bugzilla 3.6.12 / 4.0.9 / 4.2.4 / 4.4rc1 or later.
