Mantis Bug Tracker (MantisBT) is an open source issue tracker. Prior to 2.28.2, using show_inline=1 parameter and a valid file_show_inline_token CSRF token on file_download.php, an attacker can execute code by uploading a crafted XHTML attachment referencing a JavaScript attachment. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.28.2.
CVE-2026-44657
This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 72% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
