Description Pedro Sampaio 2017-07-26 00:58:53 UTC
It was discovered that Request Tracker is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack if an attacker uploads a malicious file with a certain content type. Installations which use the AlwaysDownloadAttachments config setting are unaffected by this flaw. The applied fix addresses all existant and future uploaded attachments.
