Title:	Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2013-0275)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'subversion' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2013-0275 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'subversion' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2013-0275 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: svnserve takes a --pid-file option which creates a file containing the process id it is running as. It does not take steps to ensure that the file it has been directed at is not a symlink. If the pid file is in a directory writeable by unprivileged users, the destination could be replaced by a symlink allowing for privilege escalation. svnserve does not create a pid file by default (CVE-2013-4277). Affected Software/OS: 'subversion' package(s) on Mageia 2, Mageia 3. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 3.3 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:P
