        Mantis contains several vulnerabilities, including:
        a remote file inclusion vulnerability
        a SQL injection vulnerability
        multiple cross site scripting vulnerabilities
        multiple information disclosure vulnerabilities
      
    Impact :
    
        An attacker could exploit the remote file inclusion vulnerability to
        execute arbitrary script code, and the SQL injection vulnerability to
        access or modify sensitive information from the Mantis database.
        Furthermore the cross-site scripting issues give an attacker the
        ability to inject and execute malicious script code or to steal
        cookie-based authentication credentials, potentially compromising the
        victim's browser. An attacker could exploit other vulnerabilities to
        disclose information.
