An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2014-8598 exists.\n\nAffected product: Mantisbt Mantisbt. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8598/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8598/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-8598","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8598/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-8598","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-chwc-r8cr-3fff"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MantisBT XML plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can upload arbitrary XML files or access sensitive data due to missing authorization in the MantisBT XML Import/Export plugin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mantisbt","vendor":"mantisbt"}],"cvss":{"score":6.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-19","name":null}],"description":"The XML Import/Export plugin in MantisBT 1.2.x does not restrict access, which allows remote attackers to (1) upload arbitrary XML files via the import page or (2) obtain sensitive information via the export page.
