DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in CVSNT, which can be exploited by
malicious users to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the processing of
branch names during authentication. This can be exploited to gain
write access to arbitrary directories by creating a branch name with
a specially crafted branch name.

Successful exploitation allows e.g. to execute arbitrary code by
modifying or adding administrative scripts in the CVSROOT.

The vulnerability is reported in versions prior to CVSNT 2.5.04 build
2862.

SOLUTION:
Update to version CVSNT 2.5.04 build 2862 or later.
