CVE-2018-17783

Status: ModifiedMedium (5.4)—

A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Edit Filter page (manage_filter_edit page.php) in MantisBT 2.1.0 through 2.17.1 allows remote attackers (if access rights permit it) to inject arbitrary code (if CSP settings permit it) through a crafted project name.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
