This issue affects OTRS:

7.0.X 8.0.X 2023.X 2024.X 2025.X 2026.X before 2026.4.X

This issue affects OTRS:

7.0.x

Please note that ((OTRS)) Community Edition 6.x and before are vulnerable. Products based on the ((OTRS)) Community Edition also very likely to be affected

An improper Input Validation vulnerability in OTRS Customer Backend module allows to access customer information which are restricted to other groups. Please note that the feature has to be anabled and CustomerGroupSupport has to be used to be affected.

This issue affects: ((OTRS)) Community Edition 5.0.41 and prior versions, 6.0.26 and prior versions. OTRS: 7.0.15 and prior versions.

Attacker is able craft an article with a link to the customer address book with malicious content (JavaScript). When agent opens the link, JavaScript code is executed due to the missing parameter encoding. This issue affects: ((OTRS)) Community Edition: 6.0.26 and prior versions. OTRS: 7.0.15 and prior versions.

Agent A is able to save a draft (i.e. for customer reply). Then Agent B can open the draft, change the text completely and send it in the name of Agent A.

The external frontend system uses numerous background calls to the backend. Each background request is treated as user activity so the SessionMaxIdleTime will not be reached. This issue affects: OTRS 7.0.x version 7.0.14 and prior versions.

DISPUTED In the Admin Package Manager in Open Ticket Request System (OTRS) 5.0.0 through 5.0.24 and 6.0.0 through 6.0.1, authenticated admins are able to exploit a Blind Remote Code Execution vulnerability by loading a crafted opm file with an embedded CodeInstall element to execute a command on the server during package installation. NOTE: the vendor disputes this issue stating "the behaviour is as designed and needed for different packages to be installed", "there is a security warning if the package is not verified by OTRS Group", and "there is the possibility and responsibility of an admin to check packages before installation which is possible as they are not binary."
