  • Detect HTTP REPORT method requests targeting SVN repository paths matching the pattern /!svn/bc/ — this is the attack vector for triggering the mod_dav_svn crash via an out-of-range limit in a log REPORT request.
  • The vulnerability is triggered by a log REPORT request with an invalid (out of range) limit value sent to mod_dav_svn; monitor for HTTP REPORT requests with anomalous or non-numeric limit fields in the request body.
  • The crash results in a segmentation fault in the Apache HTTPD process hosting mod_dav_svn; monitor for abnormal Apache worker process terminations (SIGSEGV) on SVN-serving hosts running Subversion 1.7.0–1.7.8.
  • ·Only Subversion versions 1.7.0 through 1.7.8 are vulnerable; versions 1.7.9 and later (including all current Fedora and Debian releases) are patched. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 ship a non-affected version.
  • ·The vulnerable component is specifically the mod_dav_svn Apache HTTPD server module; only servers with this module loaded and serving SVN repositories over HTTP/HTTPS are exposed.
