Description Alex Legler (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2009-09-17 10:55:30 UTC
From Secunia:
A vulnerability has been reported in RT, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct script insertion attacks.

Certain input displayed via custom fields is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site if malicious data is viewed.

Successful exploitation requires "ModifyCustomField" permissions or that e.g. malicious people can set custom field values via automated parsing scripts or the Web UI.

The vulnerability is reported in versions 3.4.6 to 3.8.4.

I am currently working on bumping rt from 3.6.7 -> 3.8.10 and finally 4.0.2. 
3.8.10 resolves all of these issues, and work is being done in bug #235914.  I
have posted a diff for 3.8.10 and I'm waiting for my proxy maintainer to sign
off on it.
Comment 3 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-10-02 18:10:31 UTC
rt-3.8.10 is in tree. No stable version => this bug is fixed.

Comment 5 Tim Sammut (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-10-02 21:44:19 UTC
