This CVE is not mentioned in upstream announcements at all, andis apparently a
split off from CVE-2011-4458 mentioned by upstream:

  RT versions 3.6.1 and above are vulnerable to a remote execution of code
  vulnerability if the optional VERP configuration options ($VERPPrefix
  and $VERPDomain) are enabled.  RT 3.8.0 and higher are vulnerable to a
  limited remote execution of code which can be leveraged for privilege
  escalation.  RT 4.0.0 and above contain a vulnerability in the global
  $DisallowExecuteCode option, allowing sufficiently privileged users to
  still execute code even if RT was configured to not allow it.
  CVE-2011-4458 is assigned to this set of vulnerabilities.

As CVE-2011-4458 was used for 3 separate issues, each affecting different
versions, it got split by Mitre as:

- CVE-2011-4458 for the VERP issue, affecting 3.6.1+
- CVE-2011-5092 for the limited code execution issue in 3.8.0+
- CVE-2011-5093 for the DisallowExecuteCode issue in 4.0.0+

Hence this CVE-2011-5092 should not apply to 3.6.x in EPEL-5, but the
CVE-2011-4458 (bug 824082) should, and remains unfixed.
