-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-2657 2011-03-05 01:40:10 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : subversion Product : Fedora 14 Version : 1.6.16 Release : 1.fc14 URL : http://subversion.apache.org/ Summary : A Modern Concurrent Version Control System Description : 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: A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way the mod_dav_svn module processed certain requests to lock working copy paths in a repository. A remote attacker could issue a lock request that could cause the httpd process serving the request to crash. (CVE-2011-0715) The Fedora Project would like to thank Hyrum Wright of the Apache Subversion project for reporting this issue. Upstream acknowledges Philip Martin, WANdisco, Inc. as the original reporter. Several bugs are also fixed in this update: * more improvement to the 'blame -g' memory leak from 1.6.15 * avoid unnecessary globbing for performance * don't add tree conflicts when one already exists * fix potential crash when requesting mergeinfo * don't attempt to resolve prop conflicts in 'merge --dry-run' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Mar 4 2011 Joe Orton <[email protected]> - 1.6.16-1 - update to 1.6.16 (#682203) - tweak arch-specific requires * Wed Feb 9 2011 Fedora Release Engineering <[email protected]> - 1.6.15-2 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_15_Mass_Rebuild * Sun Nov 28 2010 Joe Orton <[email protected]> - 1.6.15-1 - update to 1.6.15 * Sun Oct 17 2010 Ville Skyttä <[email protected]> - 1.6.13-3 - Make name based dependencies arch qualified where appropriate (#643714). * Tue Oct 12 2010 Joe Orton <[email protected]> - 1.6.13-2 - trim tools/buildbot, tools/dist from docdir * Tue Oct 5 2010 Joe Orton <[email protected]> - 1.6.13-1 - update to 1.6.13 * Tue Sep 7 2010 Joe Orton <[email protected]> - 1.6.12-5 - add svnserve init script - split out -libs subpackage * Fri Sep 3 2010 Joe Orton <[email protected]> - 1.6.12-4 - restore PIE support -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #683198 - CVE-2011-0715 subversion (mod_dav_svn): DoS (NULL ptr deref) by a lock token sent from a not authenticated Subversion client [fedora-all] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=683198 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
