Fedora 25: 2017-1d1a38bdd1 Critical: Subversion Code Execution Threat

fedora
Calendar Grey August 22, 2017
Dist Fedora Esm H88
An important patch for Fedora that tackles potential code execution issues in Apache Subversion, aimed at improving security and trustworthiness.
This update includes the latest stable release of _Apache Subversion_, version **1.9.7**

Summary

Subversion is a concurrent version control system which enables one

or more users to collaborate in developing and maintaining a

hierarchy of files and directories while keeping a history of all

changes. Subversion only stores the differences between versions,

instead of every complete file. Subversion is intended to be a

compelling replacement for CVS.

This update includes the latest stable release of _Apache Subversion_, version

**1.9.7**. #### Client-side bugfixes: * Fix arbitrary code execution

vulnerability CVE-2017-9800 See
