4.4.1, 4.2.7, and 4.0.11 Security Advisory
Wednesday, Oct 16th, 2013
Summary
=======
Bugzilla is a Web-based bug-tracking system used by a large number of
software projects. The following security issues have been discovered
in Bugzilla:
* A CSRF vulnerability in process_bug.cgi affecting Bugzilla 4.4 only
can lead to a bug being edited without the user consent.
* A CSRF vulnerability in attachment.cgi can lead to an attachment
being edited without the user consent.
* Several unfiltered parameters when editing flagtypes can lead to XSS.
* Due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2012-4189, some incorrectly filtered
field values in tabular reports can lead to XSS.
All affected installations are encouraged to upgrade as soon as
possible.
Vulnerability Details
=====================
Class: Cross-Site Request Forgery
Affected: 4.4rc1 to 4.4
Fixed In: 4.4.1
Description: When a user submits changes to a bug right after another
user did, a midair collision page is displayed to inform
the user about changes recently made. This page contains
a token which can be used to validate the changes if the
user decides to submit his changes anyway. A regression
in Bugzilla 4.4 caused this token to be recreated if a
crafted URL was given, even when no midair collision page
was going to be displayed, allowing an attacker to bypass
the token check and abuse a user to commit changes on his
behalf.
