The Concurrent Versions System (CVS) offers tools which allow developers to share and maintain large software projects. Stefan Esser reported buffer overflow conditions within the cvs program. They allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code as the user the cvs server runs as. Since there is no easy workaround we strongly recommend to update the cvs package.
