Trac: Cross-site scripting vulnerability Trac is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting attack that could allow arbitrary JavaScript code execution. trac 2006-01-26 2006-01-26 118302 remote 0.9.3 0.9.3

Trac is a minimalistic web-based project management, wiki and bug tracking system including a Subversion interface.

Christophe Truc discovered that Trac fails to properly sanitize input passed in the URL.

A remote attacker could exploit this to inject and execute malicious script code or to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, potentially compromising the victim's browser.

There is no known workaround at this time.

All Trac users should upgrade to the latest available version:

# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/trac-0.9.3"

Note: Users with the vhosts USE flag set should manually use webapp-config to finalize the update.
