MantisBT Vulnerable to Denial-of-Service (DoS) via Excessive Note Length
A lack of server-side validation for note length in MantisBT allows attackers to permanently corrupt issue activity logs by submitting extremely long notes (tested with 4,788,761 characters). Once such a note is added: ### Impact - The entire activity stream becomes unviewable (UI fails to render). - New notes cannot be displayed, effectively breaking all future collaboration on the issue. ### Patches Fixed in 2.27.2. ### Workarounds None ### Credits Thanks to Mazen Mahmoud (@TheAmazeng) for reporting the vulnerability.
