CVE-2002-0809

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Bugzilla versions 2.14 before 2.14.2 and 2.16 before 2.16rc2 improperly handle URL-encoded field names, which may cause certain fields to appear unset. This results in the removal of group permissions on bugs when buglist.cgi is provided with the encoded field names.

Risk Assessment

The organization may lose control over bug permissions, potentially leading to unauthorized access or modification of reports. This poses a risk to data integrity and project security.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update Bugzilla to version 2.14.2 or 2.16rc2 to fix this vulnerability. Additionally, conducting an audit of group permissions in the system is advisable.
