Synopsis |

======== |

|
18 |
A vulnerability in Subversion could lead to a Denial of Service |

Background |
22 |
========== |
23 |
|
24 |
Subversion is a version control system intended to eventually replace |
25 |
CVS. Like CVS, it has an optional client-server architecture (where the |
26 |
server can be an Apache server running mod_svn, or an ssh program as in |
27 |
CVS’s :ext: method). In addition to supporting the features found in |
28 |
CVS, Subversion also provides support for moving and copying files and |
29 |
directories. |
