Synopsis
========

A command injection vulnerability in CVS may allow remote attackers to
execute arbitrary code.

Background
==========

CVS (Concurrent Versions System) is an open-source network-transparent
version control system. It contains both a client utility and a server.

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 dev-vcs/cvs < 1.12.12-r12 >= 1.12.12-r12

Description
===========

It was discovered that when CVS is configured to use SSH for remote
repositories it allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code
through a repository URL with a specially crafted hostname.

Impact
======

A remote attacker, by enticing a user to clone a specially crafted
repository, could possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges
of the process.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All CVS users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-vcs/cvs-1.12.12-r12"
