APP: Apache Subversion SVN Protocol Parser Integer Overflow
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in Apache Subversion SVN Protocol Parser. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to cause a denial-ofservice or execute arbitrary code.
Extended Description
Integer overflow in the read_string function in libsvn_ra_svn/marshal.c in Apache Subversion 1.9.x before 1.9.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an svn:// protocol string, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow and an out-of-bounds read.
