Directory traversal vulnerability in Best Practical Solutions RT 3.2.0 through 3.6.10, 3.8.0 through 3.8.9, and 4.0.0rc through 4.0.0rc7 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a crafted HTTP request.

Best Practical Solutions RT 3.x before 3.8.9rc2 and 4.x before 4.0.0rc4 uses the MD5 algorithm for password hashes, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to determine cleartext passwords via a brute-force attack on the database.

Request Tracker (RT) 4.x before 4.0.25, 4.2.x before 4.2.14, and 4.4.x before 4.4.2 does not use a constant-time comparison algorithm for secrets, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain sensitive user password information via a timing side-channel attack.
