MantisBT is Vulnerable to XSS leading to account takeover via updating a user's font family preference
Any authenticated user can inject arbitrary HTML via updating their account's font family. ### Impact Cross-site scripting. The injected payload will be reflected in every MantisBT page. Leveraging another vulnerability (CSP bypass, see [GHSA-9c3j-xm6v-j7j3](https://github.com/mantisbt/mantisbt/security/advisories/GHSA-9c3j-xm6v-j7j3)), the attacker could achieve account takeover. ### Patches - 9e8409cdd979eba86ef532756fc47c1d8112d22d ### Workarounds None ### Credits Thanks to siunam (Tang Cheuk Hei) for discovering and responsibly reporting the issue.
