Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mantis versions prior to 1.1.4

Description The issue allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a sort parameter containing PHP sequences. These sequences are processed by the create function within the multi sort function in core/utility api.php.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.1.4, update to version 1.1.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the manage proj page.php page to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the sort parameter in the affected page until the issue is resolved.
