Debian DSA-1993-1 : otrs2 - sql injection

medium Nessus Plugin ID 44857

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

It was discovered that otrs2, the Open Ticket Request System, does not properly sanitise input data that is used on SQL queries, which might be used to inject arbitrary SQL to, for example, escalate privileges on a system that uses otrs2.

The oldstable distribution (etch) is not affected.

Solution

Upgrade the otrs2 packages.

For the stable distribution (lenny), the problem has been fixed in version 2.2.7-2lenny3.
