    <ul>
    <li>
    James Bercegay of GulfTech Security reported a Cross-site scripting
    (XSS) vulnerability in the getParameterisedSelfUrl() function in
    index.php (CVE-2008-5918) and a directory traversal vulnerability in
    rss.php when magic_quotes_gpc is disabled (CVE-2008-5919).
    </li>
    <li>
    Bas van Schaik reported that listing.php does not properly enforce
    access restrictions when using an SVN authz file to authenticate users
    (CVE-2009-0240).
    </li>
    </ul> <p>
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities to overwrite
    arbitrary files, to read changelogs or diffs for restricted projects
    and to hijack a user's session.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All WebSVN users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-apps/websvn-2.1.0&quot;</code>
  </resolution>
