|
||
<p>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.

|
||
<description>
|
||
<p>Specially crafted ‘ssh://...’ URLs may allow the owner of the
|
||
repository to execute arbitrary commands on client’s machine if those
|
||
commands are already installed on the client’s system. This is
|
||
especially dangerous when the third-party repository has one or more
|
||
submodules with specially crafted ‘ssh://...’ URLs. Each time the
|
||
repository is recursively cloned or submodules are updated the payload
|
||
will be triggered.

<impact type="normal">
|
||
<p>A remote attacker, by enticing a user to clone a specially crafted
|
||
repository, could possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
|
||
the process.

</p>

|
||
<workaround>
|
||
<p>There are several alternative ways to fix this vulnerability. Please

||
<resolution>
|
||
<p>All Subversion 1.9.x users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>

# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-vcs/subversion-1.9.7"
|
||
</code>
|
||
|
||
<p>All Subversion 1.8.x users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
|
||
