Announcement

Subversion 1.6.4 has been released, available from:

http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/subversion-1.6.4.tar.bz2
http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/subversion-1.6.4.tar.gz

THIS IS A SECURITY RELEASE, addressing the issue described at:

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2009-2411

The CVE page may not be public yet when you read this, but will be soon. The full text of the advisory is available at:

http://subversion.tigris.org/security/CVE-2009-2411-advisory.txt

This security issue affects both clients and servers. Clients with commit access to a vulnerable server can cause a remote heap overflow. Servers can cause a heap overflow on vulnerable clients that try to do a checkout or update. Subversion 1.6.4 differs from 1.6.3 only in the fix for this issue. Upgrading to Subversion 1.6.4 (or Subversion 1.5.7, released simultaneously) is therefore strongly recommended for Subversion client and server installations on all platforms.
