Insight
Joao Gouveia discovered an uninitialized variable which was insecurely used with file inclusions in the mantis package, a php based bug tracking system. The Debian Security Team found even more similar problems. When these occasions are exploited, a remote user is able to execute arbitrary code under the webserver user id on the web server hosting the mantis system.
These problems have been fixed in version 0.17.1-2.1 for the current stable distribution (woody) and in version 0.17.3-3 for the unstable distribution (sid). The old stable distribution (potato) is not affected, since it doesn't contain the mantis package.
We recommend that you upgrade your mantis packages immediately.
