DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in Apache Subversion, which can be
exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerability is caused due to a NULL pointer dereference error
in the mod_dav_svn module when processing a lock token, which can be
exploited to cause a crash via a specially crafted HTTP request.
Successful exploitation requires that the Subversion server allows
anonymous read access.
The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 1.6.16.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.6.16.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
The vendor credits Philip Martin, WANdisco.
