|
<synopsis>

Subversion is a version control system intended to eventually replace
|
|
CVS. Like CVS, it has an optional client-server architecture (where the
|
|
server can be an Apache server running mod_svn, or an ssh program as in
|
|
CVS's :ext: method). In addition to supporting the features found in
|
|
CVS, Subversion also provides support for moving and copying files and
|
|
directories.

<p>
|
|
All releases of Subversion prior to 1.0.3 have a vulnerability in the
|
|
date-parsing code. This vulnerability may allow denial of service or
|
|
arbitrary code execution as the Subversion user. Both the client and
|
|
server are vulnerable, and write access is NOT required to the server's
|
|
repository.
|
|

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
All servers and clients are vulnerable. Specifically, clients that
|
|
allow other users to write to administrative files in a working copy
|
|
may be exploited. Additionally all servers (whether they are httpd/DAV
|
|
or svnserve) are vulnerable. Write access to the server is not
|
|
required; public read-only Subversion servers are also exploitable.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time. All users are encouraged to
|
|
upgrade to the latest available version.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Subversion users should upgrade to the latest stable version:
|
|
</p>

<code>

# emerge sync

|
|
# emerge -pv ">=dev-util/subversion-1.0.3"
|
|
# emerge ">=dev-util/subversion-1.0.3"</code>
