Apple Xcode < 6.0.1 (Mac OS X)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 77863

Synopsis

The remote host has an application installed that is affected by a denial of service vulnerability.

Description

The remote Mac OS X host has a version of Apple Xcode prior to 6.0.1 installed. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability in the bundled Subversion component. The 'get_resource' function in 'repos.c' in the 'mod_dav_svn' module allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service when the 'SVNListParentPath' option is enabled.

Solution

Upgrade to Apple Xcode version 6.0.1 or later, which is available for OS X 10.9.4 (Mavericks) or later.
