(Subversion: Remote execution of arbitrary code)

    Matt Lewis of Google reported multiple integer overflows in the
    libsvn_delta library, possibly leading to heap-based buffer overflows.
  
Impact :

    A remote attacker with commit access could exploit this vulnerability
    by sending a specially crafted commit to a Subversion server, or a
    remote attacker could entice a user to check out or update a repository
    from a malicious Subversion server, possibly resulting in the execution
    of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the server or
    client.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
