-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Dear mentors and backporters,
I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 1.6.12dfsg-5~bpo50+1
of my existing backport of package "subversion".
The new version addresses the following issues, please see also the
attached BSA draft notice:
CVE-2011-0715
Subversion's mod_dav_svn Apache HTTPD server module will dereference
a NULL pointer if a lock token is sent in a HTTP request by a
Subversion client which has not authenticated to the server.
http://subversion.apache.org/security/CVE-2011-0715-advisory.txt
It builds these binary packages:
libapache2-svn - Subversion server modules for Apache
libsvn-dev - Development files for Subversion libraries
libsvn-doc - Developer documentation for libsvn
libsvn-java - Java bindings for Subversion
libsvn-perl - Perl bindings for Subversion
libsvn-ruby - Ruby bindings for Subversion (dummy package)
libsvn-ruby1.8 - Ruby bindings for Subversion
libsvn1 - Shared libraries used by Subversion
python-subversion - Python bindings for Subversion
subversion - Advanced version control system
subversion-tools - Assorted tools related to Subversion

[ A BSA number request for this security update is pending

the placeholder <Uploader> with your name. ]
Subject: [BSA-XXX] Security Update for subversion
<Uploader> uploaded new packages for subversion which fixed the
following security problems:
CVE-2011-0715
Subversion's mod_dav_svn Apache HTTPD server module will dereference
a NULL pointer if a lock token is sent in a HTTP request by a
Subversion client which has not authenticated to the server.
http://subversion.apache.org/security/CVE-2011-0715-advisory.txt
For the lenny-backports distribution the problems have been fixed in
version 1.6.12dfsg-5~bpo50+1.
For the stable distribution (squeeze) the problems have been fixed in
version 1.6.12dfsg-5.
For the unstable distribution (sid) the problems have been fixed in
version 1.6.16dfsg-1. This version is expected to be migrated to the
testing distribution (wheezy) shortly.
If you don't use pinning (see [1]) you have to update the package
manually via "apt-get -t lenny-backports install <packagelist>" with
the packagelist of your installed packages affected by this update.
[1] <http://backports.debian.org/Instructions>
We recommend to pin (in /etc/apt/preferences) the backports repository to
200 so that new versions of installed backports will be installed
automatically.
