high Nessus Plugin ID 85494

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for subversion.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2015:1633 advisory.

- subversion: (mod_dav_svn) remote denial of service with certain requests with dynamically evaluated revision numbers (CVE-2015-0248)

- subversion: (mod_dav_svn) spoofing svn:author property values for new revisions (CVE-2015-0251)

- subversion: svn_repos_trace_node_locations() reveals paths hidden by authz (CVE-2015-3187)
