Severity: Less critical
Product: OTRS 2.4.x, OTRS 2.3.x
Fixed in: OTRS 2.4.8, OTRS 2.3.6
URL: http://otrs.org/advisory/OSA-2010-02-en/
CVE: CVE-2010-2080
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This Advisory covers vulnerabilities discovered in the OTRS core system.
Multiple Cross Site Scripting issues
Missing HTML quoting allows authenticated agents or customers to inject
HTML tags.
This vulnerability allows an attacker to inject script code
into the OTRS web-interface which will be loaded and executed
in the browsers of system users.
Possible Denial of Service Attack
Perl's regular expressions consume 100% CPU time on the server
if an agents or customer views an affected article.
To exploit this vulnerability the malicious user needs to send
extremely large HTML emails to your system address.
Affected by these vulnerabilities are all releases of OTRS 2.3.x and 2.4.x up
to and including 2.4.7.
These vulnerabilities are fixed in OTRS 2.3.6 and OTRS 2.4.8.
Fixed OTRS releases can be found at:
o http://otrs.org/releases/
As a workaround it's also possible to replace the following files by a version
that has been fixed.
o OTRS 2.4.x:
o Kernel/Output/HTML/Standard/AgentStatsOverview.dtl v1.7.2.1
o Kernel/Modules/AdminCustomerUser.pm v1.57.2.1
o Kernel/Modules/AdminCustomerUserGroup.pm v1.18.2.2
o Kernel/Output/HTML/Standard/AdminCustomerUserGroupForm.dtl v1.10.2.1
o Kernel/Modules/CustomerTicketOverView.pm v1.50.2.1
o Kernel/System/HTMLUtils.pm v1.12.2.3
o OTRS 2.3.x:
o Kernel/Output/HTML/Standard/AgentStatsOverview.dtl v1.4.2.1
o Kernel/Modules/AdminCustomerUser.pm v1.55.2.1
o Kernel/Modules/AdminCustomerUserGroup.pm v1.16.2.2
o Kernel/Output/HTML/Standard/AdminCustomerUserGroupForm.dtl v1.9.2.1
