Description Martin Prpič 2015-01-12 12:38:21 UTC

It was found that the fix for CVE-2014-6316 was incomplete:

With certain browsers (FF 34, Chrome 39 but not IE11) it is still possible
to effect a cross-domain redirection using a redirect address having a
single slash, e.g.

- http://example.com/mantis/login_page.php?return=https:/google.com or
- https://example.com/mantis/login_page.php?return=http:/google.com
