DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in MantisBT, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks
and disclose potentially sensitive information and by malicious users
to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) Certain input passed via the URL is not properly sanitised before
being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute
arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context
of an affected site.

2) Input passed to the "action" parameter in
bug_actiongroup_ext_page.php and bug_actiongroup_page.php is not
properly verified before being used to include files. This can be
exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources via
directory traversal attacks and URL-encoded NULL bytes.

Note: In combination with MantisBT's file upload functionality, this
can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code.

3) Input passed to the "os", "os_build", and "platform" parameters in
bug_report_page.php and bug_update_advanced_page.php is not properly
sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a users browser session in
context of an affected site.

SOLUTION:
Fixed in the GIT repository. Update to version 1.2.8 as soon as
available.
