Calendar Grey September 30, 2017
Dist Debian Esm H88
The latest OTRS patch addresses several vulnerabilities related to code injection, featuring XSS and DoS concerns within Debian LTS. Users are advised to apply the update.
An attacker who is logged into OTRS, a Ticket Request System, as an agent with write permissions for statistics can inject arbitrary code into the system

Summary

****IMPORTANT UPGRADE NOTES****
==============================
This update requires manual intervention. We strongly recommend to
backup all files and databases before upgrading. If you use the MySQL
backend you should read Debian bug report #707075 and the included
README.Debian file which will provide further information.

If you discover that the maintenance mode is still activated after the
update, we recommend to remove /etc/otrs/maintenance.html and
/var/lib/otrs/httpd/htdocs/maintenance.html which will resolve the issue
.

In addition the following security vulnerabilities were also addressed:

CVE-2014-1695
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in OTRS allows remote
attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted HTML
email

CVE-2014-2553

authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via
vectors related to dynamic fields
