Title:TortoiseSVN <= 1.12.1 RCE Vulnerability
Summary:TortoiseSVN is prone to a remote code execution (RCE); vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
TortoiseSVN is prone to a remote code execution (RCE)
vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
These vulnerabilities exist:

- The URI handler of TortoiseSVN (Tsvncmd:) allows a customised diff operation on Excel workbooks,
which could be used to open remote workbooks without protection from macro security settings.

- The `tsvncmd:command:diff?path:[file1]?path2:[file2]` will execute a customised diff on [file1]
and [file2] based on the file extension. For xls files, it will execute the script `diff-xls.js`
using wscript, which will open the two files for analysis without any macro security warning.

Vulnerability Impact:
Successful exploitation could allow remote attackers to execute
arbitrary code to compromise the target system.

Affected Software/OS:
TortoiseSVN through version 1.12.1.

Solution:
Update to version 1.12.2 or later.

CVSS Score:
