VID 23075
Severity 40
Port 3690
Protocol TCP
Class Subversion
Detailed Description The Subversion server, according to its version number, has a pre-commit-hook template vulnerability.
Subversion is a concurrent version control system for most Linux and Unix-based operating systems. Subversion versions 1.0.3 and earlier are vulnerable to a buffer overflow vulnerability due to an insecure implementation of the pre-commit-hook template. By exploiting this flaw, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and crash the service or possibly execute arbitrary code on the system with privileges of the affected Subversion server.

* Note: This check solely relied on the version number of the remote Subversion server to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.

* Platforms Affected:
CollabNet, Inc., Subversion 1.0.3 and earlier
Linux Any version
Unix Any version
Recommendation Upgrade to the latest version of Subversion (1.0.4 or later), available from the Subversion Web site at http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=260
