Summary     : Bug tracking system
Description :
Bugzilla is a popular bug tracking system used by multiple open source projects

Without one of these database engines (local or remote), Bugzilla will not work
- see the Release Notes for details.

Update Information:

Previous versions of bugzilla had the following security issues:

* The login form had no CSRF protection, meaning that an attacker could force the victim to log in using the attacker's credentials.

* Dangerous control characters can be inserted into Bugzilla, notably into bug comments, which can then be used to execute local commands.

The first issue has the CVE number CVE-2014-1517. Please see http://www.bugzilla.org/security/4.0.11/ for all the gory details.

Both issues were fixed in 4.2.8 but it introduced a regression in bug commenting that was fixed in 4.2.9.
