The remote Ubuntu 18.04 ESM / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 23.04 / 23.10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6529-1 advisory.

  • Best Practical Request Tracker (RT) 4.2 before 4.2.17, 4.4 before 4.4.5, and 5.0 before 5.0.2 allows sensitive information disclosure via a timing attack against lib/RT/REST2/Middleware/Auth.pm.
    (CVE-2021-38562)

  • Best Practical Request Tracker (RT) before 4.4.6 and 5.x before 5.0.3 allows XSS via a crafted content type for an attachment. (CVE-2022-25802)

  • Best Practical Request Tracker (RT) before 4.4.7 and 5.x before 5.0.5 allows Information Disclosure via fake or spoofed RT email headers in an email message or a mail-gateway REST API call. (CVE-2023-41259)

  • Best Practical Request Tracker (RT) before 4.4.7 and 5.x before 5.0.5 allows Information Exposure in responses to mail-gateway REST API calls. (CVE-2023-41260)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
