Debian It was discovered that otrs2, the Open Ticket Request System, does not properly sanitise input data that is used on SQL queries, which might be used to inject arbitrary SQL to, for example, escalate privileges on a system that uses otrs2.

Debian Security Advisory DSA-1993-1                  security@debian.org

Package        : otrs2
Vulnerability  : sql injection
Problem type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s)      : CVE-2010-0438

It was discovered that otrs2, the Open Ticket Request System, does not
properly sanitise input data that is used on SQL queries, which might be
used to inject arbitrary SQL to, for example, escalate privileges on a
system that uses otrs2.

The oldstable distribution (etch) is not affected.

For the stable distribution (lenny), the problem has been fixed in
version 2.2.7-2lenny3.

For the testing distribution (squeeze), the problem will be fixed soon.

For the unstable distribution (sid), the problem has been fixed in
version 2.4.7-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your otrs2 packages.

Upgrade instructions
- --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.


Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 alias lenny
- --------------------------------

Stable updates are available for alpha, amd64, arm, armel, hppa, i386, ia64, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390 and sparc.
