Debian DLA-1816-1 : otrs2 security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 125836

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Two security vulnerabilities were discovered in the Open Ticket Request System that could lead to information disclosure or privilege escalation. New configuration options were added to resolve those problems.

CVE-2019-12248

An attacker could send a malicious email to an OTRS system. If a logged in agent user quotes it, the email could cause the browser to load external image resources.

CVE-2019-12497

In the customer or external frontend, personal information of agents can be disclosed like Name and mail address in external notes.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 3.3.18-1+deb8u10.

We recommend that you upgrade your otrs2 packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected otrs, and otrs2 packages.
