Bugzilla < 4.0.14 / 4.2.10 / 4.4.5 / 4.5.5 CSRF Vulnerability

medium Nessus Plugin ID 77779

Synopsis

The remote web server contains a web application affected by a CSRF vulnerability.

Description

According to its banner, the version of Bugzilla installed on the remote host contains a flaw in its callback APIs in which data is not properly sanitized before being submitted to the 'jsonrpc.cgi' script.
Using a specially crafted OBJECT element with SWF content, a remote attacker could perform a cross-site request forgery attack. This could cause the disclosure of sensitive bug information.

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

Solution

Upgrade to Bugzilla 4.0.14 / 4.2.10 / 4.4.5 / 4.5.5 or later.
