Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update to the system
as announced in the referenced advisory FreeBSD-SA-04:14.cvs.asc

Vulnerability Insight:
The Concurrent Versions System (CVS) is a version control system. It
may be used to access a repository locally, or to access a `remote
repository' using a number of different methods. When accessing a
remote repository, the target machine runs the CVS server to fulfill
client requests.

A number of vulnerabilities were discovered in CVS by Stefan Esser,
Sebastian Krahmer, and Derek Price.

. Insufficient input validation while processing Entry lines.
(CVE-2004-0414)

. A double-free resulting from erroneous state handling while
processing Argumentx commands. (CVE-2004-0416)

. Integer overflow while processing Max-dotdot commands.
(CVE-2004-0417)

. Erroneous handling of empty entries handled while processing
Notify commands. (CVE-2004-0418)

. A format string bug while processing CVS wrappers.

. Single-byte buffer underflows while processing configuration files
from CVSROOT.

. Various other integer overflows.

Additionally, iDEFENSE reports an undocumented command-line flag used
in debugging does not perform input validation on the given path
names.

Solution:
Upgrade your system to the appropriate stable release
or security branch dated after the correction date.
