Fedora Core 2 2004-318: subversion

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
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-2004-318 (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:

This update includes the latest stable release of Subversion, including
a security fix for information disclosure bugs in handling of metadata
(such as log messages) in repositories using mod_authz_svn for
path-based access-control (CVE-2004-0749).
