OpenPKG-SA-2004.028 11-Jun-2004
________________________________________________________________________
Package: subversion
Vulnerability: denial of service, arbitrary code execution
OpenPKG Specific: no
Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
OpenPKG CURRENT <= subversion-1.0.4-20040522 >= subversion-1.0.5-20040611
OpenPKG 2.0 <= subversion-1.0.0-2.0.2 >= subversion-1.0.0-2.0.3
OpenPKG 1.3 N.A. N.A.
Dependent Packages: none
Description:
Subversion [1] versions up to and including 1.0.4 have a potential
Denial of Service and Heap Overflow issue related to the parsing of
strings in the 'svn://' family of access protocols. This affects only
sites running svnserve. It does not affect 'http://' access. The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id
CAN-2004-0413 [2] to the problem.
Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm -q
subversion". If you have the "subversion" 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], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [6] or a mirror location,
verify its integrity [7], 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 subversion-1.0.0-2.0.3.src.rpm
ftp> bye
$ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -v --checksig subversion-1.0.0-2.0.3.src.rpm
$ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild subversion-1.0.0-2.0.3.src.rpm
$ su -
# <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/subversion-1.0.0-2.0.3.*.rpm
