Description Jan Lieskovsky 2013-01-21 11:49:12 UTC
A security flaw was found in the way Mantis, a web-based issue tracking system, checked access level permissions. In some cases, Mantis users of the Reporter role were allowed to change status of an existing issue to NEW state (even when the issue was not originally created / reported by them).
