Description Jani Averbach 2004-05-19 08:54:28 UTC
From subversion 1.0.3 announce mail:
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=announce&msgNo=125


Subversion versions up to and including 1.0.2 have a buffer overflow in
the date parsing code.

Both client and server are vulnerable.  The server is vulnerable over
both httpd/DAV and svnserve (that is, over http://, https://, svn://,
svn+ssh:// and other tunneled svn+*:// methods).

Additionally, clients with shared working copies, or permissions that
allow files in the administrative area of the working copy to be
written by other users, are potentially exploitable.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:





There is similar issue with up to and includind net-misc/neon-0.24.5
(CAN-2004-0398).
So, there is also update for neon (0.24.6), please see http://www.webdav.org/neon/.

Reassigning back to security so that we keep track of this one. Still waiting for pauldv's bump.

I'm raising a new bug for this, but FYI, subversion 1.0.4 is now available. 1.0.3 is the security fix.

The new bug number for 1.0.4 is 51572 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51572,

But, 1.0.4 isn't out yet (planned for tomorrow)!

Apparently 1.0.3 is in CVS. Stable flags are OK -- so it's ready for a GLSA
