CVE-2026-40597

CVE-2026-40597 · MantisBT has a Content Security Policy bypass via attachments

This page contains facts from public vulnerability sources. Check the original advisory before updating.

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 <script> 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.
