Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 20/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.4% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 73.9% of all records.
  • No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: subversion (Debian:12) 1.0.9-2.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to subversion (Debian:12) 1.0.9-2 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

The mod_authz_svn module in Subversion 1.0.7 and earlier does not properly restrict access to all metadata on unreadable paths, which could allow remote attackers to gain sensitive information via (1) svn log -v, (2) svn propget, or (3) svn blame, and other commands that follow renames.
