RT is an open source, enterprise-grade issue and ticket tracking system. Versions 5.0.0 and 6.0.0 and above, prior to both 5.0.10 and 6.0.3 contain a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability where uploaded content is served inline rather than as an attachment. An authenticated user who can upload content can include JavaScript in the upload that will execute in the browser session of any RT user who later views or downloads it. This issue has been fixed in versions 5.0.10 and 6.0.3.
CVE-2026-44229
This medium-severity CVE scores 5.4 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 85% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
