Summary

The remote host is missing an update to request-tracker3.8 announced via advisory DSA 2480-4.

Insight

Insight

The security updates for request-tracker3.8, DSA-2480-1, DSA-2480-2, and DSA-2480-3, contained minor regressions. Namely: * The calendar popup page in Internet Explorer would be blocked by the CSRF protection mechanism. * Search results pages could not be shared without saving, sharing, and then loading the search. * rt-email-dashboards would fail with an error due to a call to an undefined interp method. Please note that if you run request-tracker3.8 under the Apache web server, you must stop and start Apache manually. The restart mechanism is not recommended, especially when using mod_perl. For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 3.8.8-7+squeeze5.

Solution

Solution

We recommend that you upgrade your request-tracker3.8 packages.
