Fedora Core 2 2004-128: subversion |

Check for the version of the subversion package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory FEDORA-2004-128 (subversion). Subversion is a concurrent version control system which enables one or more users to collaborate in developing and maintaining a hierarchy of files and directories while keeping a history of all changes. Subversion only stores the differences between versions, instead of every complete file. Subversion is intended to be a compelling replacement for CVS. Update Information: Stefan Esser discovered an issue in the date parsing routines in Subversion which permits a buffer overflow. A possible hacker could send malicious requests to a Subversion server (either Apache-based using mod_dav_svn, or using the svnserve daemon) and perform arbitrary execution of code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2004-0397 to this issue. This update includes packages with a patch for this issue.
