An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-7897 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- mantisbt/mantisbt (Packagist): affected from 2.3.0; fixed in 2.3.2\n- mantisbt/mantisbt (Packagist): affected from 2.3.0; fixed in 2.3.2\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-2017-7897/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7897/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-7897","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7897/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-7897","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8r2m-qhff-jm2c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"MantisBT bug tracker","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary code via crafted URLs in MantisBT, potentially executing scripts if Content Security Policy settings permit.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mantisbt","vendor":"mantisbt"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the MantisBT (2.3.x before 2.3.2) Timeline include page, used in My View (my_view_page.php) and User Information (view_user_page.php) pages, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary code (if CSP settings permit it) through crafted PATH_INFO in a URL, due to use of unsanitized $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] to generate URLs.","ecosystems":["Packagist"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"MantisBT XSS via my_view_page.php and view_user_page.php","id":"CVE-2017-7897","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Packagist","product":"mantisbt:mantisbt","products":["mantisbt:mantisbt"],"type":"xss","year":"2017"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley MicroLogix 1100 and 1400","id":"CVE-2017-7898"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Packagist","fixed":["2.3.2"],"introduced":["2.3.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"mantisbt/mantisbt","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-8r2m-qhff-jm2c"},{"ecosystem":"Packagist","fixed":["2.3.2"],"introduced":["2.3.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"mantisbt/mantisbt","purl":"pkg:composer/mantisbt/mantisbt","source":"GHSA-8r2m-qhff-jm2c"}],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-7896"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-04-18","related":[{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"MantisBT allows cross-site scripting (XSS) via crafted filename","id":"CVE-2019-15074","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-08-21"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"MantisBT SOAP API has an authentication bypass vulnerability on MySQL","id":"CVE-2026-30849","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"MantisBT: Authentication bypass for some passwords due to PHP type juggling","id":"CVE-2025-47776","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-11-04"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"MantisBT allows arbitrary password reset","id":"CVE-2017-7615","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-04-16"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"MantisBT Vulnerable to Stored HTML Injection in Tag Delete Confirmation","id":"CVE-2026-33517","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-23"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"MantisBT has Stored HTML Injection / XSS when displaying Tags in Timeline","id":"CVE-2026-33548","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-23"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"MantisBT Host Header Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-23830","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-20"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can inject arbitrary code via crafted URLs in MantisBT, potentially executing scripts if Content Security Policy settings permit.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7897/"}
