Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2012-3356 is an authorization bypass in ViewVC before 1.1.15. If an organization exposed ViewVC remote SVN browsing for repositories with restricted content, a remote attacker could potentially bypass intended access controls and view material they should not access. Exposure is most likely where ViewVC before 1.1.15 was deployed with remote SVN views enabled and used to protect private or access-controlled Subversion repositories. Prioritize remediation if ViewVC protects sensitive source code or internal repositories. If ViewVC is not deployed, or only public repositories are exposed, business urgency is lower. Mitigation focus: Upgrade ViewVC to version 1.1.15 or later.; Apply fixed distribution packages from Debian, SUSE, Mageia, Mandriva, or your vendor.; Review ViewVC configuration for remote SVN views and repository access controls..
