Description

Mantis contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate 'view_type' and 'target_field' variables upon submission to the view_filters_page.php script. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity.
