Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2013-07-11 19:42:01 UTC
From ${URL} :

Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2013-1896 to the following 
vulnerability:

mod_dav.c in the Apache HTTP Server before 2.2.25 does not properly determine whether DAV is 
enabled for a URI, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) 
via a MERGE request in which the URI is configured for handling by the mod_dav_svn module, but a 
certain href attribute in XML data refers to a non-DAV URI.
