+Description:
+ Sebastian Krahmer from the SuSE Security Team discovered [1] a flaw
+ in Concurrent Versions System (CVS) [0] clients where RCS "diff
+ files" can create files with absolute pathnames. An attacker could
+ create a fake malicious CVS server that would cause arbitrary files
+ to be created or overwritten when a victim connects to it. The
+ Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id
+ CAN-2004-0180 [2] to the problem.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm
+ -q cvs". If you have the "cvs" package installed and its version is
+ affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade it
+ (see Solution). [3][4]
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [5][6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7][8] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [9], build a corresponding binary RPM
+ from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the
+ binary RPM [4]. For the most recent release OpenPKG 2.0, perform the
+ following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for
+ other releases adjust accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/2.0/UPD
+ ftp> get cvs-1.12.5-2.0.1.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -v --checksig cvs-1.12.5-2.0.1.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild cvs-1.12.5-2.0.1.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/cvs-1.12.5-2.0.1.*.rpm
