The Request Tracker vendor has disputed CVE-2013-3525.  The following vendor comment will be in NVD shortly:

        Request Tracker is not vulnerable to the "exploit" detailed in
        CVE-2013-3525.  We were unable to replicate it, and the
        individual that reported it retracted their report [1] on April
        19th.  Thus, this CVE should be considered an erroneous
        vulnerability report.  For additional information, see our blog
        post on the topic[2].

this issue, stating "We were unable to replicate it, and the
