"According to its self-reported version number, the Best Practical
Solutions Request Tracker (RT) running on the remote web server is a
version prior to 3.8.9. It is, therefore, potentially affected by the
following vulnerabilities :

  - If an individual with a valid account logs out of
    Request Tracker but does not close the browser, an
    attacker with access to that browser can use the 'back'
    button to access the previous user's account page.
    (CVE-2011-1007)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability affects the
    application when handling the logging of SQL queries
    during user transition. (CVE-2011-1008)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead
relied only on the application's self-reported version number.");
