    Package : subversion
    CVE ID : CVE-2016-8734 CVE-2017-9800

    Several problems were discovered in Subversion, a centralised version
    control system.

    CVE-2016-8734 (jessie only)

    Subversion's mod_dontdothat server module and Subversion clients
    using http(s):// were vulnerable to a denial-of-service attack
    caused by exponential XML entity expansion.

    CVE-2017-9800

    Joern Schneeweisz discovered that Subversion did not correctly
    handle maliciously constructed svn+ssh:// URLs. This allowed an
    attacker to run an arbitrary shell command, for instance via
    svn:externals properties or when using 'svnsync sync'.

    For the oldstable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed
    in version 1.8.10-6+deb8u5.

    For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in version 1.9.5-1+deb9u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your subversion packages.
