Synopsis
========

Trac allows remote attackers to execute unauthorized actions as other
users.

Background
==========

Trac is a wiki and issue tracking system for software development
projects.

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected

Description
===========

Trac allows users to perform certain tasks via HTTP requests without
performing correct validation on those requests.

Impact
======

An attacker could entice an authenticated user to browse to a specially
crafted URL, allowing the attacker to execute actions in the Trac
instance as if they were the user.

Workaround

Resolution
==========

All Trac users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/trac-0.10.1"
