Description

Two vulnerabilities have been reported in OTRS Help Desk, which can be exploited by malicious people to 
conduct cross-site scripting and clickjacking attacks.

1) Certain input related to dynamic 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.

2) The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP requests via iframes without 
performing any validity checks to verify the requests. This can be exploited to perform certain 
unspecified actions by tricking a user into e.g. clicking a specially crafted link via clickjacking.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 3.1.21, 3.2.16, and 3.3.6.


Solution:
Update to version 3.1.21, 3.2.16, or 3.3.6.

@maintainer(s): since the package has never been marked as stable, we don't need to stabilize it. After the bump, please remove the affected versions from the tree.

This bug has been around for a while. Just a ping to see if we can resolve it.

Maintainers, 3.2.12 is in tree, this is fixed in 3.2.16. Can we get an ebuild for this.
