+ CVS (Concurrent Versions System) is an open-source network-transparent + version control system. It contains both a client utility and a server. +

+
+ +

+ Alen Zukich has discovered several serious security issues in CVS, + including at least one buffer overflow (CAN-2005-0753), memory leaks + and a NULL pointer dereferencing error. Furthermore when launching + trigger scripts CVS includes a user controlled directory. +

+
+ +

+ An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to cause a Denial of + Service or execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the CVS + pserver or the authenticated user (depending on the connection method + used). +

+
+ +

+ There is no known workaround at this time. +

+
+ +

+ All CVS users should upgrade to the latest version: +

+ + # emerge --sync + # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-util/cvs-1.11.20" +
