Description Adam Mariš 2016-01-04 10:48:18 UTC
It was found that config options of crypto_master_salt was available via SOAP API, due to wrong spelling, since MantisBT sensitive config options were blacklisted to prevent their access via SOAP API.

Upstream report:

http://sourceforge.net/p/mantisbt/mailman/message/32948048/

CVE assignment:

http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2016/q1/4

After this vulnerability appeared, MantisBT was hardened to use whitelist approach instead of blacklisting:
