                 Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package name:           cvs
 Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2004:108
 Date:                   October 19th, 2004

 Affected versions:      10.0, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1
 ______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 iDEFENSE discovered a flaw in CVS versions prior to 1.1.17 in an
 undocumented switch implemented in CVS' history command.  The -X
 switch specifies the name of the history file which allows an attacker
 to determine whether arbitrary system files and directories exist and
 whether or not the CVS process has access to them.
 
 This flaw has been fixed in CVS version 1.1.17.
