Description Martin Prpič 2016-04-29 09:12:27 UTC

A denial of service flaw was found in Subversion's mod_authz_svn module. A remote attacker could use a COPY or MOVE request with a specially crafted header that, when processed by Subversion during an authentication check, could cause the Subversion server to crash.
