Description

Mantis Bug Tracker (MantisBT) is an open source issue tracker. In versions 2.28.1 and below, given any pre-existing XSS / HTML injection vulnerability, an attacker can bypass the Content Security Policy's script-src directive by uploading a crafted attachment to any issue that, when accessed via the file_download.php link, will be downloaded with a valid JavaScript MIME type resulting in script execution. The uploaded payload must be sniffed as a valid JavaScript MIME type by PHP finfo (see file_create_finfo() API function). Non-JavaScript MIME types will not get imported in a tag by the browser, due to response header X-Content-Type-Options being set to nosniff, which requires all imported JavaScript files to be a valid JavaScript MIME type. This issue has been fixed in version 2.28.2.
