[BSA-037] Security Update for subversion

Peter Samuelson uploaded new packages for subversion which fixed the
following security problems:

CVE-2011-1752
Subversion's mod_dav_svn Apache HTTPD server module will dereference
a NULL pointer if asked to deliver baselined WebDAV resources.

CVE-2011-1783
Subversion's mod_dav_svn Apache HTTPD server module may in certain
scenarios enter a logic loop which does not exit and which allocates
memory in each iteration, ultimately exhausting all the available
memory on the server.

CVE-2011-1921
Subversion's mod_dav_svn Apache HTTPD server module may leak to
remote users the file contents of files configured to be unreadable
by those users.

For the lenny-backports distribution the problems have been fixed in
version 1.6.12dfsg-6~bpo50+1.

For the stable distribution (squeeze) the problems have been fixed in
version 1.6.12dfsg-6 [stable-sec].

If you don't use pinning (see [1]) you have to update the package
manually via "apt-get -t lenny-backports install <packagelist>" with
the packagelist of your installed packages affected by this update.
[1] <http://backports.debian.org/Instructions&gt;

We recommend to pin (in /etc/apt/preferences) the backports repository to
200 so that new versions of installed backports will be installed
automatically.

Package: *
Pin: release a=lenny-backports
Pin-Priority: 200
