CVE-2011-4460: Request Tracker lets signed‑in users run any database command
CVE-2011-4460 · published 14 years ago
Summary
The Request Tracker (RT) software versions 2.x, 3.x before 3.8.12, and 4.x before 4.0.6 allow a user who has already logged in to send specially crafted input that runs arbitrary commands in the underlying database. This could let an attacker change, delete, or view data they should not access. Apply the latest updates from the vendor or your distribution to bring RT to a patched version.
What to do
- Update debian request-tracker4 to version 4.0.5-3.
