    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1725-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Thijs Kinkhorst February 15, 2009 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : websvn
    Vulnerability : programming error
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id(s) : CVE-2009-0240
    Debian Bug : 512191

    Bas van Schaik discovered that WebSVN, a tool to view Subversion
    repositories over the web, did not properly restrict access to private repositories, allowing a remote attacker to read significant parts of
    their content.

    The old stable distribution (etch) is not affected by this problem.

    For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.0-4+lenny1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has also been fixed in version 2.0-4+lenny1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your websvn package.

    Upgrade instructions
    - --------------------

    wget url
    will fetch the file for you
    dpkg -i file.deb
    will install the referenced file.

    If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
    sources.list as given below:

    apt-get update
    will update the internal database
    apt-get upgrade
    will install corrected packages

    You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
    footer to the proper configuration.
