Summary
=======

Bugzilla is a Web-based bug-tracking system used by a large number of
software projects. The following security issues have been discovered
in Bugzilla:

* When abusing the X-FORWARDED-FOR header, an attacker could bypass
  the lockout policy allowing a possible brute-force discovery of a
  valid user password.

* An attacker can get access to some bug information using
  the victim's credentials using a specially crafted HTML page.

All affected installations are encouraged to upgrade as soon as
possible.


Vulnerability Details
=====================

Class:       Unauthorized Access
Versions:    3.5.3 to 3.6.8, 3.7.1 to 4.0.5, 4.1.1 to 4.2
Fixed In:    3.6.9, 4.0.6, 4.2.1
Description: Due to a lack of proper validation of the X-FORWARDED-FOR
             header of an authentication request, an attacker could
             bypass the current lockout policy used for protection
             against brute-force password discovery. This vulnerability
             can only be exploited if the 'inbound_proxies' parameter
             is set.

CVE Number:  CVE-2012-0465

Class:       Cross Site Scripting
Versions:    2.17.4 to 3.6.8, 3.7.1 to 4.0.5, 4.1.1 to 4.2
Fixed In:    3.6.9, 4.0.6, 4.2.1
Description: A JavaScript template used by buglist.cgi could be used
             by a malicious script to permit an attacker to gain access
             to some information about bugs he would not normally be
             allowed to see, using the victim's credentials. To be
             exploitable, the victim must be logged in when visiting
             the attacker's malicious page.
