Missing X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff Header Allows MIME Type Sniffing
Summary
A vulnerability exists in OTRS and ((OTRS Community Edition)) that fail to set the HTTP response header X-Content-Type-Options to nosniff. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by uploading or inserting content that would be treated as a different MIME type than intended.
This issue affects:
* OTRS 7.0.X
* OTRS 8.0.X
* OTRS 2023.X
* OTRS 2024.X
* ((OTRS)) Community Edition: 6.0.x
Products based on the ((OTRS)) Community Edition also very likely to be affected
