Description Jan Lieskovsky 2011-05-30 16:59:53 UTC

An unintended file contents disclosure flaw was found in the way mod_dav_svn
module of the subversion concurrent version control system processed certain
URLs, when path-access control for files and directories was enabled. A
remote attacker could use this flaw to obtain information, which should
be otherwise prohibited by the authorization subsystem.
