-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2013-13696 2013-07-26 21:41:12 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : subversion Product : Fedora 19 Version : 1.7.11 Release : 1.fc19 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: This update includes the latest release of Apache Subversion 1.7, version 1.7.11. This fixes a security vulnerability in mod_dav_svn: Subversion's mod_dav_svn Apache HTTPD server module will trigger an assertion on some requests made against a revision root. This can lead to a DoS. If assertions are disabled it will trigger a read overflow which may cause a segmentation fault or undefined behavior. Commit access is required to exploit this. (CVE-2013-4131) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Jul 25 2013 Joe Orton <jorton@redhat.com> - 1.7.11-1 - update to 1.7.11 - use full relro in mod_dav_svn build (#973694) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #986194 - CVE-2013-4131 subversion: DoS (assertion failure, crash) in mod_dav_svn when handling certain MOVE, COPY, or DELETE HTTP requests https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=986194 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program. Use su -c 'yum update subversion' at the command line. For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum", available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/. All packages are signed with the Fedora Project GPG key.
