https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2008957 Bug ID: 2008957 Summary: CVE-2021-38562 rt: User enumeration through a timing side-channel attack Product: Security Response Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: NEW Component: vulnerability Keywords: Security Severity: high Priority: high Assignee: security-response-team@xxxxxxxxxx Reporter: psampaio@xxxxxxxxxx CC: j@xxxxxx, perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, rc040203@xxxxxxxxxx Target Milestone: --- Classification: Other Package: request-tracker5 Version: 5.0.1+dfsg-1 Severity: serious Tags: security Hi, upstream has fixed the following issue in 5.0.2: "In previous versions, RT's native login system is vulnerable to user enumeration through a timing side-channel attack. This means an external entity could try to find valid usernames by attempting logins and comparing the time to evaluate each login attempt for valid and invalid usernames. This vulnerability does not allow any access to the RT system. This vulnerability is assigned CVE-2021-38562 and is fixed in this release." It would be nice if you could upgrade (or cherry-pick) that fix, please also mention 'CVE-2021-38562' in the changelog when doing so.
