| 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 |
