Problem description
Another vulnerability was discovered related to "Entry" lines in cvs, by the development team (CAN-2004-0414). As well, Stefan Esser and Sebastian Krahmer performed an audit on the cvs source code and discovered a number of other problems, including: A double-free condition in the server code is exploitable (CAN-2004-0416). By sending a large number of arguments to the CVS server, it is possible to cause it to allocate a huge amount of memory which does not fit into the address space, causing an error (CAN-2004-0417). It was found that the serve_notify() function would write data out of bounds (CAN-2004-0418). The provided packages update cvs to 1.11.16 and include patches to correct all of these problems.
