NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream request-tracker4 package and not the request-tracker4 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

RT is an open source, enterprise-grade issue and ticket tracking system. Versions 5.0.9 and prior in addition to 6.0.0 through 6.0.2 contain an authentication bypass vulnerability in RT installations that use LDAP/AD for user authentication. Under certain LDAP server configurations, an attacker may be able to authenticate as any LDAP-backed RT user without supplying valid credentials. This issue has been fixed in versions 5.0.10 and 6.0.3. If developers are unable to upgrade immediately, they can temporarily work around this issue by reviewing their LDAP server's authentication policy to ensure it rejects unauthenticated bind attempts. Upgrading RT remains the recommended fix.
