3.2.6, 3.4.6, 3.6.0, and 3.7 Security Advisory
Thursday, Jun 24th, 2010Summary ======= Bugzilla is a Web-based bug-tracking system used by a large number of software projects. The following security issue has been discovered in Bugzilla: * Everybody could search for time-tracking information, not just members of the timetrackinggroup. * Under suexec, "localconfig" was world-readable, meaning that local users with shell access to the Bugzilla server may have been able to see the database password and the site_wide_secret. All affected installations are encouraged to upgrade as soon as possible. Vulnerability Details ===================== Class: Remote Information Disclosure Versions: 2.17.1 to 3.2.6, 3.3.1 to 3.4.6, 3.5.1 to 3.6, 3.7 Fixed In: 3.2.7, 3.4.7, 3.6.1, 3.7.1 Description: Normally, information about time-tracking (estimated hours, actual hours, hours worked, and deadlines) is restricted to users in the "time-tracking group". However, any user was able, by crafting their own search URL, to search for bugs based using those fields as criteria, thus possibly exposing sensitive time-tracking information by a user seeing that a bug matched their search.

This allowed any user with local shell access to see the contents of the file, including the database password and the site_wide_secret variable used for CSRF protection.
