OTRS Authenticated Remote Code Execution (OSA-2017-09)

high Nessus Plugin ID 122156

Synopsis

A service management application running on the remote host is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability.

Description

The version of OTRS running on the remote host is 4.0.x prior to 4.0.27, 5.0.x prior to 5.0.25, or 6.0.x prior to 6.0.2. It is, therefore, affected by a remote code execution vulnerability due to improper validation of user-supplied data. An authenticated, remote attacker can manipulate form parameters and execute arbitrary shell commands with the permissions of the OTRS or web server user.

Solution

Upgrade to OTRS version 4.0.27 / 5.0.25 / 6.0.2 or later.
