4.9 mediumCVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:NCVE-2017-12419
Medium (4.9) in mantisbt mantisbt. EPSS 1.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
If, after successful installation of MantisBT through 2.5.2 on MySQL/MariaDB, the administrator does not remove the 'admin' directory (as recommended in the "Post-installation and upgrade tasks" section of the MantisBT Admin Guide), and the MySQL client has a local_infile setting enabled (in php.ini mysqli.allow_local_infile, or the MySQL client config file, depending on the PHP setup), an attacker may take advantage of MySQL's "connect file read" feature to remotely access files on the MantisBT server.
