DESCRIPTION
 Subversion[1] is a compelling replacement for CVS.
 
 All subversions versions prior to and including 1.0.7 are vulnerable
 to a bug in mod_authz_svn that could allow sensitive metadata of
 protected areas to be leaked to unauthorized users, characterizing an
 information leak vulnerability.
 
 For further information about this vulnerability, please refer to
 Tigris' announcement[2].


SOLUTION
 It is recommended that all subversion users upgrade their packages.
 
 IMPORTANT: if subversion is being used in conjunction with apache,
 you must restart apache server after upgrading in order to really
 close the vulnerability.
