Information exposure vulnerability in RT software affecting version 4.4.1. This vulnerability allows an attacker with local access to the device to retrieve sensitive information about the application, such as vulnerability tickets, because the application stores the information in the browser cache, leading to information exposure despite session termination.

The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-4157 advisory.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Information exposure vulnerability in RT software affecting version 4.4.1. This vulnerability allows an     attacker with local access to the device to retrieve sensitive information about the application, such as     vulnerability tickets, because the application stores the information in the browser cache, leading to     information exposure despite session termination. (CVE-2024-3262)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 51498ee4-39a1-11ef-b609-002590c1f29c advisory.

    Request Tracker reports:
    CVE-2024-3262 describes previously viewed pages being stored in the             browser cache, which is the typical default behavior of most browsers to             enable the back button. Someone who gains access to a host computer could             potentially view ticket data using the back button, even after logging out             of RT. The CVE specifically references RT version 4.4.1, but this behavior             is present in most browsers viewing all versions of RT before 5.0.6.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD security advisory.
