medium Nessus Plugin ID 69052

Language:

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

Subversion Project reports :

Subversion's mod_dav_svn Apache HTTPD server module will trigger an assertion on some requests made against a revision root. This can lead to a DoS. If assertions are disabled it will trigger a read overflow which may cause a SEGFAULT (or equivalent) or undefined behavior.

Commit access is required to exploit this.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
