Summary
The remote host is missing an update to request-tracker3.6 announced via advisory DSA 2150-1.
Insight
Insight
It was discovered that Request Tracker, an issue tracking system, stored passwords in its database by using an insufficiently strong hashing method. If an attacker would have access to the password database, he could decode the passwords stored in it. For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 3.6.7-5+lenny5. The testing distribution (squeeze) will be fixed soon. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 3.8.8-7 of the request-tracker3.8 package.
Solution
Solution
We recommend that you upgrade your Request Tracker packages.
