Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions MantisBT versions prior to 2.25.2

Description A cross-site scripting (XSS) issue was discovered in the browser search plugin.php file. This issue arises due to the unescaped output of the return parameter, allowing an attacker to inject code into a hidden input field.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.25.2, update to version 2.25.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the browser search plugin until a patch is available. Restrict access to the browser search plugin.php file to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the return parameter in the affected plugin until the issue is resolved.
