Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions cvs versions 1.12.x through 1.12.8 cvs versions 1.11.x through 1.11.16

Description The issue is related to the serve notify function, which does not properly handle empty data lines. This may allow remote attackers to perform an out-of-bounds write for a single byte, potentially leading to the execution of arbitrary code or modification of critical program data.

Recommendations For cvs versions 1.12.x through 1.12.8, update to a version that fixes the serve notify function issue. For cvs versions 1.11.x through 1.11.16, update to a version that fixes the serve notify function issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the serve notify function until a patch is available.
