Package: rt-authen-externalauth
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole
Hi,
a security issue has been found in rt-authen-externalauth package. From
http://blog.bestpractical.com/2012/07/security-vulnerabilities-in-three-commonly-deployed-rt-extensions.html:
RT::Authen::ExternalAuth 0.10 and below (for all versions of RT) are
vulnerable to an escalation of privilege attack where the URL of a RSS
feed of the user can be used to acquire a fully logged-in session as
that user. CVE-2012-2770 has been assigned to this vulnerability.
For Wheezy, please fix this with an isolated fix instead of updating to a
new upstream release (since the freeze is in effect)
Regards,
