Description

In Apache Subversion versions up to and including 1.9.10, 1.10.4, 1.12.0, Subversion's svnserve server process may exit when a well-formed read-only request produces a particular answer. This can lead to disruption for users of the server.

Statement

An authenticated user can cause subversion server (svnserve) process to crash by sending a well-formed read-only request which produces a particular answer. Exploitation results in denial of service by crashing an svnserve process. The impact of this differs depending on how svnserve is launched, including the different run modes selected by options such as "svnserve -d", "svnserve -T -d", "svnserve -t", and "svnserve -i". mod_dav_svn is not affected by this flaw.
