Summary
=======
Bugzilla is a Web-based bug-tracking system, used by a large number of
software projects.
This advisory covers one security issue that has recently been
fixed in the Bugzilla code:
* The names of all products are exposed on show_bug.cgi to any user
who can edit bugs, even products that are normally invisible
to that user.
All affected installations are encouraged to upgrade as soon as
possible.
Vulnerability Details
=====================
Class: Information Leak

names.
