Hi Paras,

This is a very old security problem in CVS.  It only affects versions
1.11.4 and less.  Have a look at the original advisory here:
http://security.e-matters.de/advisories/012003.html/

Here is a more recent advisory:
http://security.e-matters.de/advisories/092004.html

In either case, if you download a recent version of the CVS software
from cvshome.org, you won't encounter these security problems.

Regards,
Greg
