Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2004:153. CVS is a version control system frequently used to manage source code repositories. Sebastian Krahmer discovered a flaw in CVS clients where rcs diff files can create files with absolute pathnames.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2004-0180 to this issue. Users of CVS are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages, which contain a patch correcting this issue. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2004-153.html Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 2.6
