The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200406-07 (Subversion: Remote heap overflow)

The svn protocol parser trusts the indicated length of a URI string sent by     a client. This allows a client to specify a very long string, thereby     causing svnserve to allocate enough memory to hold that string. This may     cause a Denial of Service. Alternately, given a string that causes an     integer overflow in the variable holding the string length, the server     might allocate less memory than required, allowing a heap overflow. This     heap overflow may then be exploitable, allowing remote code execution. The     attacker does not need read or write access to the Subversion repository     being served, since even un-authenticated users can send svn protocol     requests.

Impact :

Ranges from remote Denial of Service to potential arbitrary code execution     with privileges of the svnserve process.

Workaround :

Servers without svnserve running are not vulnerable. Disable svnserve and     use DAV for access instead.
