Strict Browser Cache Configuration Option

CVE-2024-3262 describes previously viewed pages being stored in the
browser cache, which is the typical default behavior of most browsers to
enable the "back" button. Someone who gains access to a host computer could
potentially view ticket data using the back button, even after logging out
of RT. The CVE specifically references RT version 4.4.1, but this behavior
is present in most browsers viewing all versions of RT before 5.0.6.

RT 5.0.6 adds a new configuration option, $WebStrictBrowserCache, which
instructs the browser not to cache page content from RT. If you run RT,
including RTIR, with highly sensitive ticket data, you can enable this new
option to prevent browser caching. The default is still disabled, to
allow for normal browser functionality, so you need to enable this option
to run with the new feature.
