Synopsis

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

Description

Francesco Sirocco discovered a flaw in otrs2, the Open Ticket Request System, which could result in session information disclosure when cookie support is disabled. A remote attacker can take advantage of this flaw to take over an agent's session if the agent is tricked into clicking a link in a specially crafted mail.

Solution

Upgrade the otrs2 packages.

For the oldstable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 3.3.18-1+deb8u4.

For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in version 5.0.16-1+deb9u5.
