The mod_dontdothat component of the mod_dav_svn Apache module in Subversion as packaged in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.11 does not properly detect recursion during entity expansion, which allows remote authenticated users with access to the webdav repository to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and httpd crash). NOTE: Exists as a regression to CVE-2009-1955.

httpd: Billion laughs attack regression
The mod_dontdothat component of the mod_dav_svn Apache module in Subversion as packaged in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.11 does not properly detect recursion during entity expansion, which allows remote authenticated users with access to the webdav repository to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and httpd crash). NOTE: Exists as a regression to CVE-2009-1955.
A denial of service vulnerability was found in subversion. The mod_dontdothat component of the mod_dav_svn Apache module did not properly protect against exponential XML entity expansion attacks. An attacker with credentials to the webdav repository could send a crafted message that would result in resource exhaustion and denial of service to httpd.
