CVE-2016-2168

The req_check_access function in the mod_authz_svn module in the httpd server in Apache Subversion before 1.8.16 and 1.9.x before 1.9.4 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and crash) via a crafted header in a (1) MOVE or (2) COPY request, involving an authorization check.

The req_check_access function in the mod_authz_svn module in the httpd server in Apache Subversion before 1.8.16 and 1.9.x before 1.9.4 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and crash) via a crafted header in a (1) MOVE or (2) COPY request, involving an authorization check.

Updated subversion packages fix security vulnerabilities:

Daniel Shahaf and James McCoy discovered that an implementation error in the authentication against the Cyrus SASL library would permit a remote user to specify a realm string which is a prefix of the expected realm string and potentially allowing a user to authenticate using the wrong realm (CVE-2016-2167).

Ivan Zhakov of VisualSVN discovered a remotely triggerable denial of service vulnerability in the mod_authz_svn module during COPY or MOVE authorization check. An authenticated remote attacker could take advantage of this flaw to cause a denial of service (Subversion server crash) via COPY or MOVE requests with specially crafted header (CVE-2016-2168).

These are all security issues fixed in the libsvn_auth_gnome_keyring-1-0-1.9.5-1.1 package on the GA media of openSUSE Tumbleweed.
